PERMATEX/FOLLOW A DREAM TEAM SPEEDS INTO CHARLOTTE

Marstons Mills, MA-March 26, 2015-Jay Blake’s Permatex/Follow A Dream Top Alcohol Funny Car team heads to Charlotte this weekend for the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at spectacular zMax Dragway hot off their fastest runs ever. Driver Todd Veney, whose career-best before the Gatornationals was 262 mph, ran at least 262 on four of five passes in Gainesville and made the team’s three fastest runs to date – 263.98, 264.13, and 265.22 mph.

“The temperature is supposed to be in the 50s on Saturday and Sunday, and they’ve completely repaved the track since we were there last fall,” Veney said. “Charlotte is where we made our quickest two runs ever – 5.52 and 5.53 – so I can’t wait to see what the car might run this weekend.”

“We’ve made a lot of progress already this year,” said Blake, who’s been on the road since the Gatornationals at speaking engagements across the southeastern U.S. “It’s time for another national event win for Follow A Dream, and Charlotte is as good a place as any to do it.”
