Funny Car team boss says he came into 2022 prepared for economic challenges.

Pedregon, a 38-time Funny Car event winner, has been a model of consistency this season, leaving each of the first eight events either fourth or fifth in the points standings. He's yet to make a final round, but he made it to the semifinals in the season-opener at Pomona.

"I take it year by year," he said,"In drag racing, you try and project how many runs you make. Hopefully, you don't have too many catastrophic issues like blowing bodies.

Drag racing is probably the toughest of auto racing in general—you never know when you're going to have that pileup on the track.
