National Guard ADRL Names Vandiver Director of Race Operations
O’FALLON, MO (May 15, 2009) –The National Guard American Drag Racing League (ADRL) is pleased to announce the promotion of William “Quick” Vandiver to director of race operations. In his new role, Vandiver will work closely with Executive Vice President of Competition Bert Corzine to ensure National Guard ADRL events continue to operate in the safe and efficient—but fun—manner that competitors have come to expect.
Vandiver will serve as the primary liason between Corzine and all National Guard ADRL competitors and will be involved in all aspects of the events, including at times assuming the responsibility of making the “tough calls.” He will assume his new duties May 22-23, during the National Guard ADRL Quarter-Max Memphis Drags II at Memphis Motorsports Park in Millington, Tennessee.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge,” Vandiver said. “National Guard ADRL racers are the best in the business and I want to make sure everything runs as smoothly and as fairly as possible for every one of them every single time they go down the track.”
Vandiver joined the National Guard ADRL in 2006 at its historic Dragstock III event and was a key figure in establishing and promoting the incredible growth of the series’ Flowmaster Extreme 10.5 class.
Throughout his career, Quick has done it all when it comes to race operations, from working the water box to prepping the track to announcing on the P.A. He’s even been known to get behind the wheel at times and I understand he’s killer on the tree,” Corzine said. “His experience, from both an official’s and a racer’s perspective, make him the ideal person for the job.”
