Tuttle Motorsports Teams Up with Rod Fuller and Technicoat For NHRA Winternationals

Rod Fuller teamed up with Technicoat and the famous "Technicoat Cowboys" to drive Dexter Tuttle’s Liquid MPG Top Fuel Dragster at the NHRA Winternationals. Fuller seemed to adapt well to the new car as it ran a 5.67 right out of the box even though he lost traction.

In the second round of qualifying, Fuller made a big performance jump to improve to the 13th position with a 3.94 at 294 MPH. In the third and final session of qualifying due to some unexpected rain showers, Fuller smoked the tires.

In round one, Fuller faced number one qualifier Morgan Lucas. As the light went green, Lucas left the starting line first with an 0.038 to Fuller’s 0.057. Lucas continued in the lead as the Technicoat - Liquid MPG sponsored car dropped a cylinder. By then Lucas was able to cross the stripe first for the win. “We burned a spark plug wire which caused the engine to drop a cylinder. It wasn’t too bad of a weekend since we really didn’t hurt anything” Tuttle said.

Following the Winternationals, the team will be parked for the foreseeable future until a marketing partner can be found.
