It's been called the Super Bowl of drag racing: Indianapolis, the biggest drag race of the season where the very best come together to compete to be called Champion of the MAC Tools U.S. Nationals - and for mortgage banker Mike Ashley, it's a dream that came true today. After four rounds of grueling eliminations, Ashley drove the special-edition Eric Blake Faulkner Foundation Tribute Car all the way to the Winner's Circle and into second place in POWERade Championship points-race. "This one is for the dreamers - because it's been a dream of mine to win at Indy since we debuted two years ago," said an ecstatic Ashley.
