Bo Butner claims the JEGS Allstars Super Gas title at Texas Motorplex during the Stampede of Speed, finally converting a long‑standing target into silverware.
At 52, the multi-class winner adds to more than 30 victories and two championships, underlining versatility developed across Pro Stock, Super Street, and sportsman programs.
Butner secures his first JEGS Allstars win on his fourth appearance in the event.
The Allstars field brings divisional champions to a 9.90‑index contest, demanding precision and discipline. Butner advances first when Division 6’s Nathan Huber breaks out, gifting a crucial opening.
A narrow second‑round win over Division 2’s Tim Powell reinforces execution. Reaction times are near identical; Butner’s 9.903 holds off a 9.914 through measured throttle‑stop management.
The final hinges on a clean launch and tight stripe judgment. Butner leaves first and wins with 9.928 against Charlie Stewart’s 9.931, a margin reflecting disciplined index racing.
Final margin: 9.928 to 9.931, decided by launch and finish‑line discipline.
Momentum carries into Sunday’s NHRA Texas FallNationals, where he reaches the semifinals in Super Gas. The near double underscores form and confidence under high‑profile scrutiny.
A throttle‑stop bolt then fails, cutting power in his Corvette roadster. Kyle Pawuk capitalizes and claims Texas Motorplex honours, while Butner’s bid ends despite a competitive baseline.
Semifinal exit caused by a failed throttle‑stop bolt, not performance deficit.
The venue carries weight. He took his first national Super Stock win here 24 years ago, which contextualizes both disappointment and the progress shown across the weekend.
Short‑term plans include family time and an entry into the 24 Hours of Lemons with friends and his son, plus a Trunk‑or‑Treat at the family auto group.
Next stops: 24 Hours of Lemons and the 2027 New Year Resolution Race at Bradenton.
He also targets Bradenton’s 2027 New Year Resolution Race, extending the calendar beyond season’s end.
Community backing remains central. He credits JEGS, Summit Racing Equipment, Hoosier Racing Tire, and others, emphasizing how partner support sustains competitive depth in sportsman drag racing.
With wife Randi Lyn also performing strongly, their program targets continuity into 2027. Recent momentum complements his latest Dallas trophy win, offering a solid platform for future campaigns.
