JENKINS CRUISES TO WIN AT RT. 66

 

The Finals at Rt. 66 turned out to be a battle of champions. 2016 Champ, Gary Jenkins used a 8.907 to take out former Midwest Super Comp Champ and #1 Qualifier, Pat Lamont. Delvan Shepard raced his way to the semi-finals.

 

A Shout-out to the crew and management of Rt. 66 for all their hard work in prepping the hard hooking race surface. Due to heavy rains in the week prior to race day, the track needed a lot of TLC to stop the weeping.

 

Our next race will be at Byron on June 17 & 18. Good Luck to all competing at the upcoming Divisional Races.

 

BE SAFE!!!      HAVE FUN!!!

KWAS BROS. & JOEY FUESTING

The 30th Midwest Super Comp Series season got underway at Byron Dragway in fine fashion. Saturday's race found Rich & Gene Kwas find the winners circle with a victory over Pat Lamont. The Final was labeled "The AARP Final".

 

Sunday's race turned out to be the kids day to play. Youngsters Joey Fuesting and Chad Lamont met in the final. In a close double break-out race the win light shined on Joey. Congrats to the Winners & Runners-up!!
