Patience and persistence are necessary in the world of drag racing, and Joe Arrowsmith has refined those skills to put his name on the board in the highly competitive Competition Eliminator category.
Arrowsmith finished No. 6 in NHRA's Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series Divisonal standings in 2022 with one win in one final round. He claimed victory at the Brainerd Lucas oil Divison 5 race in June.
Over the course of the 2022 season, Arrowsmith claimed 3 low qualifier awards to bring his career total to 16.
Racing has always been a family affair for the Arrowsmith clan. The family patriarch, Daryl, was an active competitor in Modified and Comp Eliminator and has been part of the drag racing scene for over 60 years.
Ready to step into his own, the younger Arrowsmith licensed in Super Gas with Frank Hawley in 2018 and was in the mid 9-second zone his first time down the dragstrip. Soon after, he got in the family Comp car on a Friday at Brainerd International Raceway, and after two test passes, he was officially the designated driver. His father happily relinquished the seat in favor of tuning their racecar, and the role-swap immediately proved successful.
Now a two-time national record holder, Arrowsmith set the F/AA class record at 7.85-second and 172.94 mph in 2021 and the G/AA record at 8.02, 168.75 in 2020, both in the Arrowsmith Racing 2006 Jerry Haas-built Pontiac GTO.
Now 38 years of age, Arrowsmith resides in Ham Lake, Minnesota, with partner Ellie and daughters Chloey and Mackenzie. The 2023 season will mark his fifth year as a drag racer in the increasingly tough world of NHRA Competition Eliminator
