THE WA VICTORY LAP Newly crowned Mid-West Pro Mod Series champion Aaron Wells does a smoky burnout across the Texas Motorplex starting line in his supercharged ‘67 Mustang GT-500 during the series’ inaugural Atomizer Racing Injectors MWPMS Invitational at the NHRA FallNationals. Wells went on to beat Justin Jones, his championship challenger, in the final round to claim the first NHRA Wally awarded to an eighth- mile winner at an NHRA national event. “Honestly, that was as exciting for myself and my team as winning the season championship,” Wells said.
