Saturday. — April 19th
This was our first Street Nite event of the 2025 race season and yes it was a good one. We got started right at noon with 155 racers in eight classes. Weather was cloudy but warm temperatures in the low 80’s. All classes got two time runs and then right to eliminations. In Nasty 9’s the Index was set at 9.85 in the 1/4 mile. John Moser took the win over Charlie Booze Jr. next was the Quick 16 racers. There were 25 entries and the bump was a .533, it actually was a faster 5.27 but two cars were broken and the 17 and 18 cars moved into the field. The winner was Rtacy Stroup over Bill Steven’s, Mark Decker and Lin Bowie the semi racers. 5.90 Index was won by Will Woodyard over Chuck Wishard.6.50 Index had Dave Heaton over Howard Lawson. 7.10 Index was won by Jeff Meleo over Dennis Blanchard. Pro had Donnie Myers over Gary Kelican, sportsman was won by Mike Cleary over Ed Kline and finally Dylan Reyson won over Bruce Garber. Nearly no down time, fast paced show, dynamite traction and great driving with many great lights and dead on passes. How about Heather Boyd who licensed in her 70 Chevy Nova 5.70s@119 mph, great job. Good to see long time tough race team of Jeff and Lisa Meleo winning 7.10 Index. well done! Donnie Myers did great winning Pro, that’s been awhile coming. We finished up at 6:30 pm.
Thoughts on the event. Great close racing as it usual is the norm on Street Nite. The track was again awesome. Fast cars going A to B run after run. We had a nice mix of cars in all the classes. Nice seeing a good turnout of race fans. Our track staff also ran a really fine event for sure, well done everyone. That’s right Steve Dickey did announce a good bit earlier in the day. Anytime Steve is with us the day is just better! Ok Friday night 6 to 10 Test & Tune and Saturday and Sunday we have Rob Keisters Dot .90 race featuring Top Sportsman Top Dragster Super Comp Super Gas and Super Street and a box and no box class and Junior Dragster. Hope to everyone this weekend at Mason Dixon Dragway!
