    VIPsports.com is Hungry for Win Lights

    Milford, Michigan. The 9th Annual CarQuest Auto Parts NHRA Nationals, this coming weekend at Route 66 Raceway, in Joliet, Illinois, will host the unique Jeg’s All Stars “race within a race.” The Jeg’s event brings the country’s top NHRA Sportsman racers – the point leader in each class in each division – together for a prize money shoot-out.

    The VIPsports.com Dodge Stratus Top Alcohol Funny Car, driven by Danny Townsend, will compete in both the National event and the All Stars race for the second year in a row. “Last year, we were runner-up by just a slight margin,” commented Frank Parker, team owner. “This year, we’re zeroed in on getting Danny to the winner’s circle – twice. Running two full events stresses the team, but we love the challenge and we’re hungry for win lights.”

    The ParkerTech Racing Services crew has qualified their Mopar Hemi-powered Dodge race cars at every race entered since mid-2001. This year, with just one divisional win, in Gainesville, they are seated sixth in National Top Alcohol Funny Car points and second in Division 3 points.

    Qualifying for the Top Alcohol category is scheduled for Friday, June 9, at 1:00 pm and 5:30 pm. Saturday, June 10, will be a Sportsman racing fan’s smorgasbord. The final Top Alcohol qualifying session will run at 8:45 am. The Jeg’s All Star eliminations begin at 10:30 am, continue at 2:30 pm and wrap up with final eliminations at 4:00 pm. Sunday’s opening ceremonies begin 10:00 am and final eliminations follow at 11:00 am. For more information on the race, and Route 66 Raceway, call 815-727-7223 or visit www.route66raceway.com.
