The American Dream On Steroids

Pete Ward
Josh Hart

JOSH HART WENT FROM PILOTING A 13-SECOND FORD PICKUP TO A FIVE- SECOND A/FUEL DRAGSTER IN SIX SHORT YEARS, ALL WHILE CREATING BURNYZZ SPEED SHOP, A BURGEONING DO-IT-ALL AUTOMOTIVE EMPIRE.

Prior to 2009, Josh owned a successful asphalt paving company in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Growing tired of the vagaries of Midwestern weather, he and wife Brittanie did a thorough search for a more hospitable climate. Location selected, the business was sold, and off they went to Ocala, Florida.

Once in Ocala, Josh began participating in extracurricular racing activities, as he had in Indiana. New friend Gene Selby convinced him to go legit and take his considerable driving skills and Ford Lightning to NHRA’s fabled Gainesville, Florida, facility. What followed throughout the next five years was a succession of faster and faster race cars.
