World-renowned custom hot rod builder and TV personality Chip Foose, Mac Tools and Kalitta Motorsports will once again bring their high-horsepower partnership to the NHRA POWERade Drag racing Series. The partnership will come together April 12-15, during the SummitRacing.com NHRA Nationals, at one of the NHRA s premier quarter-mile facilities, The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

For the third time in the past two NHRA seasons, Foose and Foose Designs will team up with Mac Tools and Team Kalitta to renovate the body design of the 8,000-horsepower Top Fuel dragster. Driven by Doug Kalitta, the exclusively-designed Foose paint scheme will cover the 330-mph, nitro-fueled rocket on wheels that normally displays the Mac Tools branded “Big Red” design. In the automotive industry, the name Chip Foose is well known for his legendary one off automobiles like the Foose Coup and the Grandmaster. Chip is well on his way to being a legend on and off the track. “Chip is a great friend and partner” proclaims Tony Merritt, Sports Marketing Manager of Mac Tools, “and we are proud to have him as a part of our team.”
