The last time David Jaynes was competing at an ADRL event was at the World Finals in Ennis, Texas in October of 2008.
That was until Friday.
Janes was back driving in the Extreme 10.5 class in a Dodge Avenger at the ADRL Hardee’s Independence Drags IV at Heartland Park in Topeka, Kan.
“I took off last year to help Shannon Jenkins,” said Janes, who last won an ADRL event at Norwalk, Ohio, in 2008. “He was running a car of mine, and I just dedicated myself to going to races with him. I’m running a customer’s car (this weekend). The customer has not licensed yet, and the car is ready to go and we need some test time anyway. It is close to home and I got to come out here and see all my old buddies and race out here on a good racing surface and see what we can do.”
