LIVE from Union County Pro-Am
Welcome to the newest facility on the IHRA circuit, Union County Dragway in Union, SC, about an hour southwest of Charlotte. The new 1/8the mile track just opened last year. Tony Brown was tapped to manage the track this year. Tony is a Super Stock racer himself, as well as the head of the PTRA (Pro Tree Racers Association). The pits are still under construction, but all the buildings, staging lanes, and the track itself are all great. Reminds me a little of Skyview.
We've got more barometer than Michigan last week, but it's HOT this afternoon, with a sky-high vapor pressure. ET/mph was very close to last week. Only took -.84 under to be #1, if that tells you what the air is like! I'll have to check DRC and see if 3rd generation racer Tyler Bell held onto the top seed in hid granddad's G/CM AMX (LD Whitley's)
