Team owner Don Prudhomme and owner/driver Tim Wilkerson announced an alliance for the upcoming 2008 NHRA POWERade Drag Racing season. While Snake Racing will field a car in the Top Fuel category and Tim Wilkerson will campaign a Funny Car, the new coalition will create the ability for the two teams to share resources and discuss tuning decisions, while generating new opportunities for their sponsors.
"Tim has always been a really good guy and a solid competitor," Prudhomme said. "I know he has a good relationship with (Snake Racing crew chiefs) Donnie Bender and Todd Smith and both teams have always been quick to lend each other a helping hand. For 2008, I wanted to strengthen the relationship between our teams and create opportunities for our dragster and Tim's Funny Car program."
