Team Aruba Looking to Break Three Second Barrier at Drag Wars
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Team Aruba Looking to Break Three Second Barrier at Drag Wars
BENSON, N.C. (Sept. 7, 2017): Last year's PDRA Drag Wars was, simply,
electrifying. This weekend's event, held for the second consecutive year at
GALOT Motorsports Park, is full of promise for the same incredible
entertainment. Team Aruba is already on the grounds, taking advantage of
the all-day test session PDRA offers on Thursday of every event.
Team Aruba and PDRA visited GALOT Motorsports Park in April of this year,
as well, with Trevor Eman and the gang from Aruba taking the top qualifying
spot in Extreme Pro Stock and pushing the Aruba.com Mustang all the way to
the semi finals. Eman hopes the team can continue that success this weekend.
“I like the fact that we are getting the chance to race at GALOT in Benson,
NC for a second time this year,�?? explained Eman. “The nice thing about this
is when you race at a track twice in a short span, you have your notes and
runs from only a couple of months before that you can build off of. You’re
not starting from scratch.
“Most of the teams here this weekend were also at the spring event, so
everyone will have something to go off of, which means the fans will have
the opportunity to see some very good and fast racing this weekend.
“We certainly hope to be one of those teams to continue off our good runs
we made at the first race here this year, where we qualified number one.
The weather seems to be similar to what it was earlier in the year and we
know the track prep is going to be similar, as Jason Miller and his crew
have been doing a good, consistent job all season long. So hopefully our
success from the race earlier this year will give us an advantage this
weekend.
“Hopefully we use our tools right this weekend and become the first
Mountain Motor Pro Stock car to break the three second barrier in the
eighth mile.�??
Although a three second Pro Stock run has been elusive thus far, breaking
that barrier this weekend is not out of the question. The North Carolina
heat will be settling into fall with temperatures dipping into the 50s this
weekend. Hurricane Irma is not expected to impact North Carolina until
Monday, so a clear and mild weekend will leave the door wide open for Eman
and team. As the current record holder at 4.022, which Eman set in June of
this year, Team Aruba has what it takes to get the job done.
“We’re excited about the potential this weekend holds and also looking
forward to connecting with more eastern NC fans to talk about our island
home.�??
