    Whiteley to return in Fontana

    Team Owner/Driver Jim Whiteley, Crew Chief Norm Grimes and Team YNOT are glad to be back at the track as the team prepares for the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series NHRA Division Seven event to be held at Auto Club Dragway at the California Speedway this weekend (May 4-6). The team has been on a short hiatus after a very rocky start of the year at the Winternationals in Pomona.

    The team will participate in the scheduled test session on Thursday to shake down the new Chip Nielsen built dragster. This car replaces the one destroyed in an accident at the first race of the year at the CarQuest Auto Parts NHRA Winternationals in February. The testing is important due to the fact that many changes have been made from the old car to the new one, such as driver position and mounting of many components and the length of the chassis. The team will then concentrate on qualifying and going rounds in the LODRS Event to make up for events missed in Phoenix and Las Vegas.
    Qualifying is scheduled for one attempt on Friday and two on Saturday and eliminations to be run on Sunday. Gates open at 7:00 am with racing beginning at 8:00 am on all three days.
