"Jake Green has been an outstanding track specialist and a tremendous asset to our program. What separates Jake from many others is his ability to recognize and adapt to changing track conditions throughout an event, particularly between rounds when the racing surface can change significantly due to weather, track temperature, rubber buildup, and maintenance procedures.
His understanding of NHRA drag strips comes from years of experience at some of the most demanding facilities in the country. Jake doesn’t rely solely on data—he combines the information with a keen eye for what the track is telling him in real time. Whether conditions are improving, going away, or changing lane-to-lane, he consistently provides accurate assessments that help teams make informed decisions.
That level of awareness and experience is invaluable in NHRA competition, where a small change in track conditions can be the difference between winning and losing."

"Before we started using Jake Green’s track services in July of 2023, we had no information about how the race track changed during the day, which made it difficult in determining how hard we could push our Rick Ware Racing Top Fuel Dragster.
Since then, Jake has provided us with tons of information which helps our tuning decisions. Being able to know when there are oil downs, track scrapes, and traction compound sprays during the day is also a big help.
Jake also provides a track temperature every 30 minutes as well as Keg readings whenever he can get on the track to do that, as well as videos showing the launch of your run as well as pictures of your tracks.
Jake is always working on ways to improve his track services, and is always willing to listen to any suggestions you may have.
For teams that can’t afford their own track specialist like the big teams have, working with Jake is just like having your own track specialist for a fraction of the cost."
