Bo Butner won the JEGS Allstars Super Gas title at Texas Motorplex, completing a long-standing goal after decades of NHRA racing. He nearly added a second victory at the Texas FallNationals but exited in the semifinals when a throttle-stop bolt broke.

By the Numbers
  • Butner is 52 and has more than 30 career wins and 2 world championships.
  • He won the Allstars final, 9.928 to 9.931.
  • His semifinal reaction time in round two was .016 seconds.
Yes, But

The Allstars win delivered the milestone, but a mechanical failure ended Butner’s chance to claim the FallNationals title. He said he felt capable of winning the semifinal and the race before the part broke.

What's Next

Butner is set to head to Las Vegas for the next NHRA race, with other racing and community events on his calendar before the season’s end.

Bottom Line

Butner’s Allstars victory capped a career-long pursuit—and, despite a disappointing mechanical exit, he’s already looking ahead to what comes next.
