GAINESVILLE, Fla., March 14, 2015 – Greg Anderson is assertively taking as many steps in the right direction as possible, and that certainly was the case during qualifying for the 46th annual Amalie Oil NHRA Gatornationals.

On Friday at the Gatornationals, Anderson and the KB Racing team rolled a fresh car out of the trailer, and the debut of the red Jerry Haas-built Chevrolet Camaro quickly proved effective. Anderson recorded a 6.537-second pass at 212.90 mph in the first session and improved in the later round to a 6.529, 212.73 that was third quickest of the session.

Anderson Quickly Finding Comfort Zone in red Summit Camaro

GAINESVILLE, Fla., March 13, 2015 – The first day of qualifying at the 46th annual Amalie Oil NHRA Gatornationals put a smile on Greg Anderson’s face. Anderson, of Mooresville, N.C., debuted a new bright red Summit Racing Chevrolet Camaro and is quickly finding the groove at Auto-Plus Raceway at Gainesville. At the end of the first day of qualifying, Anderson was positioned in the No. 4 spot.

“This new Summit Racing Chevrolet Camaro is definitely good,” said Anderson, who clocked a 6.537-second pass at 212.90 mph in the first session and came back with an improved 6.529, 212.73 that was third quickest of the session and good for a bonus qualifying point. “We missed the set-up today a little bit, but the car is certainly in the ballpark of where we want it to be. We just gotta hit it right on the bullseye. I can’t deny it, this Camaro is way ahead of schedule.

“We’re pretty excited about today. I’ve got a chance to be the top qualifier, and I have a chance at winning the race – legitimately. No hoping, no dreaming, no praying, this car is really that close to ready. I can’t wait for tomorrow, and I sure can’t wait for Sunday.”

Anderson, who has twice reset the Pro Stock national record in Gainesville, has another agenda here this weekend, to rally for the fan vote so that he can race in the prestigious K&N Horsepower Challenge. Anderson, who did not race the event last season as he was out on medical leave for the first handful of races, is currently outside of the top seven drivers who will earn their position in the shootout based on their cumulative qualifying points earned over the past year. However, the multi-time K&N Horsepower Challenge winner is eligible to receive the eighth and final spot via fan vote. Fans can log their vote at nhra.com/knhpchallenge.aspx.

“I would love to get that fan vote and be part of the K&N Horsepower Challenge,” said Anderson. “I absolutely love that race, it’s a very special event, and I didn’t get to do it last year – I don’t want to go two years in a row without racing for that special trophy. One way or another, I want to find my way in.”
