Since debuting the brand new Lowmad Pro Extreme machine, the second incarnation of the wildly popular and famed original ’55 Chevy Nomad Pro Modified, driver and chassis builder Joey Martin has been on an absolute tear with quick and consistent performances that would even make a seasoned bracket racer perk up.
After an absolutely dominating performance in West Palm Beach last month, Martin and company headed to the always-quick Maple Grove Raceway loaded for bear and during Friday’s second qualifying session, unloaded a second-quick 3.584 at 207.11 that trailed only Frankie Taylor’s minutely quicker 3.581. In the final session the following morning, a stellar 3.596 at 207.88 was enough to give Martin the national record for the moment. That mark taken back by Taylor just a few hours later.
With cameras once again mounted all over and around the fan-favorite Nomad and the Davis Traction Control telemetry rolling, every aspect of both of Martin’s record-setting runs were captured for our viewing pleasure. And as you’ll see in the second video, making Joey’s 3.59 backup run all the more impressive is the throttles momentarily slamming shut around half track.
