When Kopp decided to move to the Pro ranks with the introduction of Pro Stock Truck in 1998, he made a pivotal decision to become Bill Jenkins' first small-block Chevy customer for the new category. The move that gave him a decided edge in horsepower for the duration of the season as Kopp not only won five of 12 national events that year, but he qualified No. 1 at six different events and set a national record with his season-best clocking of 7.594. At the prestigious NHRA U.S. Nationals, Kopp produced a wire-to-wire victory by running the quickest elapsed time in all four rounds of qualifying, and all four rounds of eliminations as well.
