Snyder Looking for First Win of the Season

After a very productive outing last weekend in Joliet, Illinois the Snyder Motorsports Race Team sponsored by Knoll Gas – Torco Racing Fuels / Powersource Transportation will be heading back to the track for the Joliet Divisional event this weekend. The defending event champions are very excited to get back out there after running their quickest pass ever at this same track last weekend.

“We are really looking forward to the weekend. After blowing up the motor in the first round of the All-Star race because of an electrical issue, we had to go home and build another motor. Not to mention all the other maintenance we do between each race. I need to thank our great suppliers, especially R&R Racing Products, Coan Engineering and Rhyne Competition, for getting us everything we needed on such short notice. We could not do any of this without their help,” said driver, Mick Snyder.

For the defending Division 3 champions, this will be their second divisional race this season and they are hoping to pick up their first win. After finally discovering the issue that has been plaguing them since the beginning of the year, the Team ran some of their strongest numbers ever last weekend at the National event. They are hoping the success will continue this weekend.

“My Team has been working so hard this year. Hopefully, this will be our breakout weekend and we will be able to get this Knoll Gas – Torco Racing Fuels / Powersource Transportation funny car in the winner’s circle. This is the home race for Powersource Transportation, which is based out of Griffith , Indiana , and my friends and family will be in attendance as well. Not to mention it is Father’s Day weekend and my Dad works so hard to make sure this car is ready to go each week. It would be great to be able to give him a Wally on Sunday!”

Qualifying will begin on Friday evening at 5 PM and continue on Saturday with passes at 5 PM and 8 PM. Eliminations will begin on Sunday at 1 PM and continue until a champion is crowned.
