TULSA, OK (June 23, 2007) –Driving the Disturbed Motorsports Supercharged Pro Modified Chevrolet Camaro, Pro Mod racer Eddie Ware had a good outing, qualifying eighth in the 16-car field, and getting into the semi-final at the Inaugural Skull Shine Sooner Nationals International Hot Rod (IHRA) Knoll - Gas Nitro Jam Drag Racing Series at Tulsa Raceway Park in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The team went down to Pat Stoken of Eureka, MT in a 1968 Camaro in the semi-finals with a 6.367-second, 223.54 mph effort.

“We had a good day, I’m disappointed, but it’s great for our team to go a couple of rounds,” said Eddie Ware about his Torco’s CompetitionPlus.com Pro Modified finish. “We want to congratulate Pat (Stoken) on his win, he flat out ran us in the semis.”

Stoken defeated Quain Stott driving a 1963 Corvette from Columbus, NC in the final round.
