FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE *** 05-24-01
Advanced Clutch Technology IDRC Spring Nationals
Atco Raceway, New Jersey
Sunday, June 3rd, 2001
After a record setting production at its East Coast opener, the IDRC and its
headline racers are ready to rewrite the record books on Sunday, June 3rd at
Atco Raceway. The top point's leaders in import drag racing's most
prestigious and richest national series will now take aim at earning points
toward the $128,500 championship purse. While racing action will be heated,
the Movement One car show is looking to eclipse its newly set record with
over 200 cars in surrounding the packed manufacturer's midway. The number of
Movement One trophies and awards has been tripled for this special event.
This event will also feature a USAC Outlaw SPL challenge to see who can
crank it up with the highest horsepower audio system. The audio systems will
be hard to hear over the crowd's cheers as the IDRC's Ultimate Body Contest
makes its East Coast debut with some of the hardest bodies East of the
Mississippi. The best magazines in the industry, including Import Tuner,
Sport Compact Car and Turbo, will capture this historic event.
In the Toyo Tires Pro Class, Marcos Acosta and the Keystone three-rotor MX-3
will challenge the newly crowned world's fastest sport compact, the Hoyos
Racing V6 twin-turbo Ford Focus that ran 7.59s at 187 mph is looking to run
even quicker and faster. David Buschur and his Pro Class Eclipse will look
to find the limits of performance without the bottle. Will the "import
killer" Focus move into the points lead, or will the field of Pro Class
imports unite to defeat the Detroit threat?
In the Apex Integration Outlaw Class, Vinny Ten will be back in hopes of
becoming the first Outlaw into the 7s. Last weekend, problems with the
nitrous system kept Vinny out of competition. For this national IDRC event,
Vinny is hungry for a victory. Locals Carlos Monatano in the Pepe Loco
Datsun and Juan Lopez in the Lopez Productions Datsun have other plans, as
they look to move up in the points chase to dethrone the current leader
Stephan Papadakis.
In the Nitto Tires Quick Class presented by Turbo magazine, the Extreme
Motorsports Diamond Stars of Brent Rau and Sean Glazar are looking for
retribution as minor problems kept the number-one and number-two qualifiers
out of the winner's circle at the IDRC East Coast Nationals. Gary Gardella
and the Ecko Unlimited Civic are out to prove that their Cinderella-story
victory last weekend was no fluke.
In the importdrag.com Street class presented by Sport Compact Car magazine,
Brad Daley will be back in action to quell the onslaught of all-wheel-drives
that dominated last week's action. Winner and runner-up, John Shepherd and
Jeff Hill have other plans as both plan to earn enough points to take over
the points lead.
Tickets are still available for racers, show cars, and spectators at
www.importdrag.com or at the gate. You've read
about it in your favorite magazine, you've seen it on television, now it is
time to become part of the ultimate import/sport compact experience...IDRC.
