NOBLE PREVIEW - BRANDON "THE KID" LEWIS 
 
Brandon "The Kid" Lewis has winning on his mind at the NHRA Division-4
event at Thunder Valley Raceway Park
 
BROKEN ARROW, OKLA - October 11, 2006
Second-year NHRA top alcohol funny car driver Brandon "The Kid" Lewis
will settle in at Thunder Valley Raceway Park this weekend with one
specific goal.
 
"We're going to win," the 21-year-old said. "We've been through a lot
the second half of the season and this is the weekend that everything
we've done needs to start paying off."
 
The second half of the 2006 schedule has been trying at times for Lewis
Racing Team, as the driver pointed out. Engines troubles proved costly
in Brainerd and Ennis, the tires disappointed in Indianapolis and
weather diminished its chances in Houston.
 
Lewis said things are going to changes in Noble, though, and it won't be
a matter of luck.
 
"We've got a new pair of Goodyear's we're comfortable with, the crew has
some key experience and we've made a couple changes with the car that
are going to make the difference," he said.
 
With only the NHRA Finals in Pomona remaining on Lewis's schedule, the
stakes for this weekend's Division-4 race are high.
 
"What it comes down to is we need our best showing this weekend," Lewis
said. "That way we head into Pomona with all of the confidence and
experience we need to end 2006 the way we want: competing for the top
spot at a national event.
 
The NHRA Division-4 event at Thunder Valley Raceway Park kicks off with
Thursday testing. Lewis is scheduled for two testing passes. Qualifying
begins Friday.
