Kate Harker gets set to make season start in Pomona with a fresh new look on
her Top Alcohol Dragster

 

 

Pomona, CA - After a roller coaster off season, the Harker-Conway A/Fuel
Dragster team are set to make a fresh season start at this weekends CarQuest
Auto Parts NHRA Winternationals opening event at Pomona Raceway across
February 7-10.

 

For 24 year old Australian dragster driver, Kate Harker, this will be the
start of her second year behind the wheel of Championship Owner and Crew
Chief, Tom Conway's A/Fuel Dragster. Harker and Conway paired up in late
2006 as Harker completed her licensing in Conway's dragster with a
blistering 5.355 seconds pass at over 260 mph. Following  the generous
support given from Skull Shine and Torco Race Fuel's Evan Knoll, the team
were able to compete at 22 events in the 2007 season to finish 12th in the
National Top Alcohol Dragster Championship. 

 

This weekends event held in Pomona, CA couldn't have come at a better time
for the Harker-Conway Team as they not only get set to unveil a new program
and a new race car design but also open the door to inviting new marketing
partners to join their team in what will hopefully be another successful
season.

 

"On behalf of Tom, our team and myself we can't thank Evan Knoll enough and
all the wonderful people at Torco Race Fuels and Skull Shine Products for
their support over the past seasons." Says Kate "It really is sad to know
that Evan will not be with us this year, but his support and friendship over
the previous years has been overwhelming. We certainly wish Evan all the
best with his recovery." said Harker

 

As the Harker-Conway team travel the long road across to the Auto Club
Raceway with every minute the pressure building going into this weekend's
event, Harker has her mind fully focused on doing the one job she knows best
and that's drive.

 

"Tom has given me a great car and an awesome team and I am more than ready
to get back in the driver's seat and make the most of every pass down the
track this weekend." "I believe we have what it takes to win a championship
because Tom has already proved it four times in his racing career, so we are
definitely hungry for a win here this weekend." said Harker

 

With optimism and ambition in their hearts, Harker and Conway get set to
make their season debut an exciting and memorable weekend and the hopes of
making this another amazing year for the team.
