Maddern Racing Looking For Back To Back Finals in Vegas

Maddern Racing Looking For Back To Back Finals in Vegas

Las Vegas, Nv. -- Chris Demke, pilot of the Jerry Maddern powered Top Alcohol Dragster are ready for competition once again just north of the Nevada Desert hot spot known as Sin City.

This event marks the second of two back to back events for the Peen Rite / Clean Boost Performance Oil Team. Their final round appearance last weekend gave them additional data for this weekends 12th Annual SummitRacing.com NHRA Full Throttle Nationals.

“The numbers last weekend in qualifying didn’t show it, but we struggled in qualifying” noted Demke, “we ran a 5.41, 5.40 and a 5.42, but we were off a tenth in our tune up from previous Las Vegas numbers that we have logged.

“When we serviced the car on Saturday night, we made significant changes that put us where we left off last November, however, we did break an intake spring and retainer. It was a bit of a thrash to get everything back and ready for second round, but we did and we made it to the final round.

“We are back in Vegas and ready to go rounds this weekend. There is an unusually low car count of competitors this weekend, but they are all very reputable teams and we are not taking any of them lightly”.

The Peen Rite / Clean Boost Oil Team congratulates Joey Severance and his team for a great performance and the win at the Division 7 Lucas Oil Race.

Qualifying at the SummitRacing.com Nationals for the Top Alcohol Class begins on Friday at 11:00 AM and 4:30 PM. Final Qualifying is on Saturday at 9:45 AM with 1st Round of Eliminations scheduled at 4:00 PM. Final Eliminations begin at 11:00 AM on Sunday.
