5.3's the Goal for Hunter and ExactAir Team in Seattle

5.3's the Goal for Hunter and ExactAir Team in Seattle

KENT, Wash. (August 2nd, 2012) – After a month off of the race track, Greg Hunter and the ExactAir Top Alcohol Dragster team are refreshed and returning to quarter-mile competition at this weekend’s Northwest Nationals. The northwest native is hoping to keep his national event first round win streak going while trying to go deeper into eliminations.

“Though the entry list is short, it’s still a strong field. Most, if not all of the cars are capable of running 5.3s. We need to step up to that 5.3 range if we want to win races. We were right on the edge of it at Chicago, but a couple parts failures prevented us from running better,” said Hunter.

Greg’s last race was the Route 66 Nationals in Chicago. He qualified 10th with a 5.46 at 263 mph, out-qualifying multiple past national and divisional champions. His .031 light first round helped him earn the win over Dan Page. Second round saw him get the holeshot again, but eventual race winner Jim Whiteley was able to drive around him. Hunter believes the Kenny Gilmour owned and tuned ExactAir car will be throwing down solid runs in Seattle.

“There are a few factors that will play into our favor this weekend,” Greg said. “The weather forecast is great; no chance of rain and 80 degrees all weekend. That will make the motor and the crew happy. We also have new parts on the car. I can’t wait to see how the weekend goes!”
