VALDOSTA (ADEL), Ga. – A multitude of professional and sportsman racers will converge on South Georgia Motorsports Park [SGMP], March 6 – 8, 2008, for the 9th annual CSR Eastern Spring Test Nationals presented by Torco’s CompetitionPlus.com. This traditional event has become a staple of high performance which caters to a race-hungry southern Georgia drag racing demographic. The event traditionally opened only one day for spectators and attracted thousands of spectators.
The 2008 version of ESTN promises to be the largest ever. Instead of fans being allowed entry only for the traditional “Chicago Style” eliminations on Saturday, the gates will be open for Friday night testing under the lights.
ESTN caters to the various doorslammer divisions in drag racing with a special extension to include the Top Alcohol and Nitro divisions. Race fans can witness everything from the 500-inch Pro Stockers to the ultra-competitive Pro Stock Bikes to the over-the-edge Pro Modifieds. Beyond that, nearly a dozen Top Alcohol entries will thunder down the SGMP quarter-mile as well as the 6.2-second mountain motor Pro Stockers.
Allen Johnson will bring his 500-inch Pro Stock Dodge Stratus to SGMP with visions of laying down competitive elapsed times in comparable conditions that he will face the following weekend during the NHRA Gatornationals in Gainesville, Florida. Johnson won last year’s “Chicago Style” eliminations on Sunday, defeating former Mopar teammate Richie Stevens.
Andrew Hines and Chris Rivas are just two prime examples of the high quality Pro Stock Bikes that are entered for ESTN. Hines reached the finals of the Saturday show last year but lost a tight final round battle to Chip Ellis, the former rider for the G2 Racing Team. Rivas has replaced Ellis in 2008.
Pro Modified, an exhibition category on the NHRA tour and a full-time division in IHRA competition, has over 40 entries at this time. Among those entries are two-time NHRA champion Mike Ashley and six-time class icon Scotty Cannon.
The popular Fast News Network will chronicle the weekend’s runs and post on Drag Race Central | Presented by Summitracing.com 1-800-230-3030.
