Traci Hrudka, Linda Vaughn, Lori Johns on Speed Scene Live

Traci Hrudka, Linda Vaughn, Lori Johns discuss preserving drag racing history

The Quarter Mile Entertainment Foundation has been invited to participate on the highly regarded SpeedScene Racing Live on Tuesday, April 13, at 6 PM PDT (9 PM EDT; 8 PM CDT).

Joining host, Scott “Lucky” Hudson in an hour-long discussion of PROJECT 1320 will be Traci Hrudka, Chairman of the Quarter Mile Entertainment Foundation, racing’s favorite lady, Linda Vaughn and multiple NHRA Top Fuel star, Lori Johns.

The “Fast Track Sisters” will discuss the historic importance of PROJECT 1320 to the sport of drag racing and the performance aftermarket.

Reaching over a half million live viewers, plus many more viewers of archived episodes, SpeedScene Racing Live will project the message about PROJECT 1320 to a very sizeable, and influential audience, according to Traci Hrudka. “When the Foundation was approached to do the show with ‘Lucky,’ I was very pleased to hear how large the live audience is, to say nothing about the carryover to the viewers who view the archived materials,” she said. “The fact the show is live, done in a studio setting, makes the program all the more impressive.”

For host, “Lucky” Hudson, the opportunity to bring the three women on the show to discuss the PROJECT 1320 effort was a natural. He commented, “First, our audience is male dominated, and to bring on three attractive blondes will get attention. However, on a more serious note, the cause they are involved with needs the fans, the racers and the industry to get behind it.

“I have followed PROJECT 1320 from the early days, and I felt our show needed to help provide a platform to make the documentaries about the sport’s history a reality. When this opportunity presented itself, our staff jumped on it.

“I think the combination of Linda’s iconic status, Lori’s on-track achievements, and Traci’s dynamic personality and passion will receive a positive response from our audience. It should be fun, informative and at times, I am sure, poignant. I, for one, am looking forward to this program!”

The program will be seen at www.speedsceneracing.com at 6 PM Pacific time, 9 PM Eastern, 8 PM Central, 7 PM Mountain. The show will also be available in the website’s archives for 28 days following the initial airing. The archived show should be available on Thursday, April 15.

Viewers are encouraged to participate in the show. The toll free number for audience participation is
