Summit Racing–Line Makes Two Good Runs on First Day in New England

Line Makes Two Good Runs on First Day in New England
 
Event:  Inaugural NHRA New England Nationals
Location: New England Dragway, Epping, N.H.
Day/Date: Friday, June 21, 2013
 
Pro Stock pilot Jason Line is already enjoying the first weekend of summer wheeling the blue Summit Racing Chevrolet Camaro at the Inaugural NHRA New England Nationals, and the Mooresville, N.C.-based driver is looking forward to another two blasts down a racetrack that is hosting NHRA national event-level competition for the first time.
 
The racing surface at New England Dragway was pleasingly receptive to the factory hot rods on the first day of the event, and in the highly anticipated opening session of the day, Line raced to a 6.576 at 212.49 mph to jump right into the No. 4 position. With his first lap ever in New England under his belt, Line and his Summit Racing team tuned on their racecar and came back with an improved 6.565, 212.36.
 
“The second run was actually much better,” said Line, who will launch into the second day of the race in the provisional No. 5 position in the qualifying order. “We’re already having a great time here, and I tell you, the people here are very nice. We love to see a big crowd, and there is sure one here at New England Dragway this weekend. Hopefully, we can continue to put on a good show for them. I’m pleasantly surprised by this facility and these fans, and I’m looking forward to coming back out to make a couple more runs before we race on Sunday.
 
“We made decent runs today and we’re certainly right on target with getting acclimated to this racetrack. There is room for improvement, but we go into Saturday feeling pretty good because we know we have a car we can race with. On top of that, this is a neat place, and we’ve got some great weather. What more can you ask for.”
