DRAGRACING: Nitro Burning Truck Races Announced

5 March 1999

Brent and Vicky Fanning have announced a series of exhibition races between the Udder Nonsense Dodge Dakota driven by Brent Fanning and the American Dream Chevy S-10 driven by, currently fastest female funny car driver, Vicky Fanning for car owner J. R.Wade.

Brent debuted the first ever nitro burning "THUNDER TRUCK" at match races last summer to rave reviews. According to Brent "truck racing in any form, be it in a circle or in a straight line, seems to be something that the spectators can identify with for two reasons. One, the race trucks appear more like their street driven counterparts than other race cars, and two, more and more spectators are driving trucks themselves."

Brent and Vicky Both feel that the "THUNDER TRUCKS" would be perfect for developing a limited, affordable, nitro burning race class. The nitro cars are what people love to watch in drag racing, and a "limited" truck class would give racers a place to learn nitro on a smaller budget while providing a very exciting racing event for some of the smaller market race tracks.

250 mph, 5 second, nitro burning, side by side truck racing is here! Could drag racing be THUNDER TRUCKING into the next millennium?
