Hector Arana Jr. continues to make progress with Lucas Oil Racing TV bike
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NORWALK, Ohio (June 25) -- Lucas Oil Racing TV rider Hector Arana Jr. has had an
un-Hector Arana Jr.-like season in 2016, but the Pro Stock Motorcycle rider is
clearly making progress.
Arana has finished in the top five in the points standings in each of his five seasons
in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series. To start 2016, though, he struggled
out of the gate.
But he qualified No. 3 in Englishtown, N.J., and raced to the second round, and
he followed that up with another top-half qualifying effort at the Summit Racing
Equipment NHRA Nationals this weekend at Summit Motorsports Park.
"I'm very pleased with this Lucas Oil Racing TV Buell," Arana said. "We're starting
to make some progress. It's been a long road, but I feel like we're seeing the light
at the end of the tunnel.
"We're definitely on the right track. The bike is consistently leaving the line
well."
Arana snared the No. 8 qualifying spot with a pass of 6.890 seconds at 193.27 mph,
but he was especially proud of his run in the final session, 6.925 seconds at 193.24
mph, run in the heat of the day Saturday. That was the fourth-quickest run for the
round, and with higher temperatures expected Sunday, it could bode well for him
in eliminations.
"We stumbled on a couple of things right before the last session," Arana said. "Unfortunately,
it was before the worst session of the day, weather-wise. The heat was there, so
we were unable to run faster than the prior sessions because of the conditions.
We're on the right track, though.
"It was a good run in the heat, and we found some stuff. My 60-foot was a little
off, but it was still right there at No. 2. We'll work at it, go from there, and
see what happens."
Arana will have to race his dad in the first round Sunday, as Hector Sr. qualified
No. 9 with a pass of 6.897 seconds at 194.97 mph.
"We have to race each other in the first round, but it guarantees one bike going
to the second round," Arana said. "We'll go from there. We're both going to work
our hardest, and whoever has the best tune-up and is on their game will be the guy
who wins."
The first two rounds of eliminations will air live on FOX Sports 1 beginning at
noon, Sunday, with a three-hour recap later in the evening, starting at midnight.
