|||||||||||||||||||||||| THE INTERVIEW ISSUE MAN OF PATIENCE: CHAD GREEN The second-year Pro Mod driver is steadily making his presence known BY KELLY WADE | ||| |||| |||||| ||| |||| || TEXAN CHAD GREEN debuted in NHRA’s E3 Spark Plugs Pro Mod Series in 2018, and he has so far had a very eventful turn in the furiously challenging, thrillingly competitive category. Successful businessman Green is relatively new to the scene, but he is making a name for himself as a contender in his Bond-Coat, Inc. nitrous-as- sisted Chevrolet Camaro, and he is learning with every pass down the racetrack. Green bounced back quickly from crashes in Gainesville and Bris- tol last year, eager to get back behind the wheel and refine his skills. Victory is on the horizon for Green, who had two career final-round appearances and a No. 1 qualifier award in the category at the time of print. What the future holds is yet to be determined, but one thing is for sure: Green has found his racing home. ||| ||| | | |||| Photographs by RICK BELDEN & TARA BOWKER |||| Dr ag Illustr ated 102 D r a g Il l u s t r a t e d . c o m || ||| | ||||| ||||| |||||| ||| || |||
