BRISTOL DRAGWAY ANNOUNCES 2012 SUPER CHEVY SHOW EVENT DETAILS

BRISTOL, Tenn., (January 26, 2012) – For many Chevrolet fans, Thunder Valley has become synonymous with the Super Chevy Show, as one of the largest and longest running events in series’ history. True to its rich history with the series, Bristol Dragway will host the Super Chevy Show September 21 – 23, 2012.

The Super Chevy Show in Bristol will feature exciting attractions for both racing and car show fans with Chevy-Powered Bracket 1 (Super Pro), Bracket 2 (Pro), DOT and True Street Eliminations, as well as a Car Show featuring the finest in restored and modern Chevys.


After visiting the Car Corral for a new “project,” fans in search of the perfect restoration or performance part can shop the Swap Meet or Midway showcasing vendors specializing in GM restoration and aftermarket products.

In addition to all the exciting Super Chevy Show activities, the Thunder Valley Mayhem Pro Show will thrill fans and inspire speed-demons on Saturday night with two exhibitions.

“Thunder Valley has been on the Super Chevy Show circuit for over two decades,” said Julie Bennett, Vice-President Bristol Dragway. “During that time, the event has grown to become one of the best and largest in the country. Not only does our event have an amazing car show and vendor area, we have a lot of great racing at the same time. Plus, we now host our thrill show, Thunder Valley Mayhem, during the event. All of this makes Bristol the one place to be for Super Chevy Show fans in 2012.”
