FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DTRP hosts TNT Super Series double header weekend July 1-2
Steve's Electric presents third double of 2011!
LANCASTER, NEW YORK (June 28, 2011) The upcoming long weekend will see the third Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series double race weekend of 2011 – this time at Dunn Tire Raceway Park in Lancaster, NY on July 1-2.
Part of the biggest, loudest show of the summer featuring Cruz & Tony Pedregon Friday night and their nitro-burning 8000hp funny cars, the TNTSS will showcase some of the best sportsman drag racing action on the planet.
Last July, the holiday weekend event is where Pete Maduri Jr won both Friday and Saturday, marching through the 33 car field – the largest field in TNTSS history – and was well on his way to his first TNTSS championship. This year with only one race completed, is a different story and there are 40 other drivers with their own championship plans.
Steve McCarrick, owner of Steve’s Electric, presents this weekend’s TNTSS events. “We’re just happy to support this deal. Everyone does a great job and to be part of the fifth season is even better,” said Steve. "What's rewarding for us are both the competiveness on the racetrack and the friendships off the track."
Steve runs a 1956 Chevy in the TNTSS plus various national and divisional races. It's powered by a 468 BB Chevrolet and is capable of runs in the 9.80 range at 140mph.
In addition to the double header, this Saturday morning will see the TNTSS complete the rained out eliminations from June 10.
Gates open EARLY this Friday at 2pm for racers. See www.dunntireracewaypark.com for full weekend details and www.tntsuperseries.com for complete TNTSS rules and points info.
