Description

A two-time and reigning Funny Car champion, Robert Hight (@roberthight7000) worked his way up the organization from crewman to world champion. Hight has won at least one Funny Car national event every season of his career which started in 2005 and is the current national record holder for speed and elapsed time.

The even-keeled demeanor of Robert Hight, driver of the Auto Club of Southern California Chevrolet Camaro SS Funny Car and President of John Force Racing Inc., can often cause him to fly under the radar that is constantly triggered by the hyper-speed antics of team namesake and CEO John Force.

Because of this, Hight quietly has become the No. 1 driver for the No. 1 team in the sport's most popular category.

As the two-time and reigning Funny Car champion, Hight is carving out his own piece of history apart from his boss. He was so dominant in winning in 2017 that he likely will be favored every time he rolls his Auto Club Chevy Camaro to the starting line in his 14th season.
