STRONG TURNOUT OF RACERS PARTICIPATE AT FIRST OF FOUR MIDNIGHT DRAGS THIS SEASON
The opening round of the Peterson Chevrolet Midnight Drags attracted a good field of cars and trucks who took to the quarter-mile track for unlimited grudge racing. Although the weather forecast was projecting heavy thundershowers and precipitation, not a drop fell on the raceway (although surrounding areas reportedly received several strong storms and heavy rain). Steady headwinds to start the evening simmered by nightfall as racers took advantage of the first official night race of the season. Those seeking multiple grudge heats were rewarded with upwards of 7-8 passes at the late-night affair. The night also yielded quite a number of new qualifiers in the 100 mph club as cooler conditions (temps averaged in the 70’s during the daylight hours, but dropped into the 60’s when darkness set in). Round 2 of the Midnight grudge races will take place, Saturday night, June 13th – pass the word!
