DRAGSTOCK II entries at 59 ... and counting

9/29/05

early 60 entries have been received for the FLOWMASTER American Drag Racing League's Fatheadz.com DRAGSTOCK II event presented by DragRacingOnline.com. The second annual DRAGSTOCK event, featuring Outlaw Pro Mod competition in the Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous categories, is scheduled for Friday through Sunday at Carolina Dragway.

The entry list features most of the top drivers in the ADRL Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous points standings, as well as a number of first-time participants in the series. As of Tuesday, Sept. 27, entries have been received from 39 Pro Extreme and 20 Pro Nitrous drivers.

The DRAGSTOCK II roster features drivers from not only the traditional Pro Mod strongholds in the southern United States, but also a number of competitors from other parts of the country (there are even four non-U.S. entries, including Mikael Lindahl and Erik Fors of Sweden). Among the domestic entries, South Carolina is home to 11 drivers; nine drivers are from Georgia; seven apiece are from Alabama or North Carolina; six are from Florida; and four are from Texas. Eight other states are represented by at least one entry: Alaska, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, and Tennessee. The international entries include Rick Distefano from Canada, and Troy Critchley, an Australian who lives in Texas.

DRAGSTOCK II begins Friday with open testing. Saturday features three rounds of qualifying for both the Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous classes, followed by the eight-car eliminations programs in the evening. On Sunday, the ADRL's unique team challenge concept will take center-stage when the AMS All-Stars and the FLOWMASTER Outlaws meet for the third time.

Following is the DRAGSTOCK II entry list as of Sept. 27.
