Racing
For more than 15 years, Follow A Dream proudly partnered with Permatex and became one of the most inspiring teams in racing. Led by Jay Blake—the only totally blind crew chief in motorsports—the team has proven that perseverance and passion can overcome any challenge. Today, Follow A Dream is writing its most exciting chapter yet with the move into Nitro Funny Car, racing the fastest cars in the world while continuing to inspire fans everywhere to follow their own dreams.
Nitro Funny Car
The culmination of a lifelong dream
In 2026, Follow A Dream will proudly debut our Nitro Funny car, competing at the very top of the NHRA. This milestone is the culmination of a lifelong dream for our founder, Jay Blake – the world’s only totally blind crew chief. With this new chapter, our team is ready to push limits, inspire fans, and race among the best in the sport.
Super Comp Dragster
FROM OUR ROOTS TO THE PRESENT
Follow A Dream racing began its journey with a dragster driven by the talented Jim Blake, laying the foundation for a legacy built on passion, perseverance, and the thrill of the track. Today, that legacy continues with our Suer Comp Dragster, proudly raced at New England Dragway by Jamie Blake, Jim’s son and Jay’s nephew. From our roots to the present, our dragster embodies the same spirit of determination and the joy of chasing dreams at full throttle.
RETIRED
Top Alcohol Funny Car
A Champion turned inspiration
Our retired, championship-winning Top Alcohol Funny car now serves as a one-of-a-kind show car, inspiring audiences wherever it goes. As part of our speaking engagements, fans and students don’t just see the car – they get to experience it. We invite people too get hands-on, explore the cockpit, and even sit in the drivers seat for photos, making the dream of racing feel within reach – while reminding them that their own dreams are within reach, too.
