Worsham leaves Kalitta Motorsports
to rejoin family-owned team
2015 NHRA Funny Car champion
Del Worsham will leave Kalitta
Motorsports and rejoin his
family-owned Funny Car team.
“It was a hard decision to leave a
championship-caliber team such
as Kalitta Motorsports,” said
Worsham. “However, there is so
much unfinished business with
my family’s team and I felt now
is the time to do it. I am excited

to see what the future holds. I
cannot thank Connie Kalitta
enough for giving me a shot in
Scott’s car, and helping me
achieve one of my ultimate goals:
a Funny Car championship.
I also want to thank Jim O
(Oberhofer), Jon O (Oberhofer),
Nicky
Boninfante,
the
‘YellaFellas’ and my Kalitta
Motorsports teammates.
