Not every aspiring nitro racer has the deep pockets or deep connections that can pave their way to a full-time ride in a top-tier car. For those without that built-in launch pad, the course of success takes equal parts ingenuity, determination, and the willingness to build from scratch. Just ask Joe Morrison, who has worked his way through the nostalgia ranks and Top Alcohol Dragster to a seat in the Leverich Racing Top Fuel dragster.
