Baldwinville, MA – Peter Farber and the rest of the TJ and Sons Towing Auto Repair team have had one of the most roller coaster years in the sport over the course of 2011. The good news is that the last couple of months have been on hell of a ride.
Early year frustrations culminated with a horrifying crash at Bristol, followed by an epic thrash to have the car mended in time to make the following event. Since those wild weeks of no sleep and constant work, the iconic 1969 Charger Daytona that Farber pilots has been on kill and the whole crew is looking forward to their final Get Screened America Pro Mod race at the Big O Tires NHRA Nationals in Las Vegas.
“We have had a really strong run going the last couple of months,” Peter Farber said. “We’ve made two consecutive final round appearances in ADRL races and at the last Get Screened America race in Charlotte we made the semi-finals. With the ADRL experience we have gotten consistent on the front half of the track, which is so crucial in these cars.”
The wild Mopar, which is a fan favorite, got a great reception at both the Norwalk and Dallas ADRL races, especially with consistent runs in the low 3.90 zone and round wins.
“People really love the car and now that we’ve gotten to a place where we are comfortable with the tune up, I love it too,” Farber said with a laugh. “The conditions in Vegas are always different with the elevation and all, but the team and I are coming into this race feeling good about where we are with the car and how we’ve been running.”
Being the last blast of the season, the TJ and Sons Auto Repair team will be ready to throw the proverbial kitchen sink at car this weekend in Las Vegas. You can bet on it.
