Reba Sellers Wins Extreme Cockpit Makeover



Reba Sellers Wins Safety Solutions' Extreme Cockpit Makeover
Marks First for Eastern Conference Finals

(Bristol, Tenn., 08/04/2010) – Junior drag racing star Reba Sellers
may not have made it to the final round of competition at the 2010
NHRA Jr. Drag Racing League Eastern Conference Finals held in Bristol,
Tenn., but she is still a winner – especially to Safety Solutions,
Inc.

Sellers, 15, of Byron, Ga., won an "Extreme Cockpit Makeover" from
Safety Solutions, Inc., makers of quality safety equipment for all
types of racing. The makeover – valued at more than $1000 – featured
Safety Solutions' Dynamic Occupant System, including a Hybrid Pro™
head, youth safety belts, Safety Foundation Inc. (SFI) roll-bar
padding, arm restraints and a safety consultation with Safety Expert
Trevor Ashline. The winner was chosen at random based on entry forms
received during the event.

"I was so excited when I heard my name called," Sellers beamed.
"Safety is such an important part of racing. I'm really looking
forward to getting comfortable with all this new equipment."
"Safety should come first in all types of racing," comments Trevor
Ashline, Safety Solutions' president. "Safety Solutions believes
safety begins at the onset of every racer's career and is committed to
keeping racing heroes – from the pros to our kids – safe."

This was the first time Safety Solutions, Inc., participated in a
junior drag racing event. In addition to the Extreme Cockpit Makeover
give-away, Safety Solutions sponsored a cookout and manned a product
booth at the race.

Sellers is the daughter of Dick and Kathy Sellers, who raced
motorcycles for more than 15 years before hanging up her helmet to
raise her family. Reba attends Peach County High School, where she
will be a junior. She has been drag racing for seven years and hopes
to follow in her mother's racing footsteps.

Founded in 2001, Safety Solutions, Inc. is an industry leader in
racing safety products – from head restraints to seat belts and driver
nets. Safety Solutions features many different SFI 38.1 head
restraints, a standard that sets them apart from the competition.
Their products are approved and worn by top drivers in NASCAR, NHRA,
ADRL, Lucas Oil Off Road, World of Outlaws, and Southern California
Timing Association, to name a few.

Safety Solutions is the leading authority on safety in the racing
industry and is regularly called upon as the principal safety
consultant for racing related incidents, including the Dale Earnhardt
investigation and the Eric Medlen Project.

Action heats up for Round Four of the PMRA 2010 Tour


Tight points race for Pro Modifieds going into Stratford Spectacular Weekend at Grand Bend Motorplex

GRAND BEND, ONTARIO (August 3, 2010) – When the Pro Modified Racing Association rolls in to the Grand Bend Motorplex this coming weekend of August 7-8 for the Stratford Spectacular Hot August Nationals presented by Ideal Supply & NAPA Auto Parts, the teams will be on their game plan in this hotly-contest 2010 season.
"We have any number of teams who could win this round," noted Bruce Mehlenbacher, Director of Operations for the PMRA. "So far this season we have recorded a different winner for each event."
The top three teams in the Championship Point Award Series presented by Magnum Auto Parts and Patio Passport are Mike Stawicki of Medina, New York with 828 points, Derek Hawker of Corbyville, Ontario with 812 points, and Eric Latino of Port Perry, Ontario with 806 points. Each of these three racers has won an event this year.
"Our Championship Point Award Series race is very close right now, and qualifying for the Marydel Homes Qualifying Bonus and making laps in this event at Grand Bend is important," Mehlenbacher continued. "The PMRA teams will be out there giving it their all."
The upcoming race is round four in the 2010 PMRA tour, now in its sixth year of operation.
Presently in fourth spot is three-time and reigning PMRA Champion Bruce Boland of Hamilton, Ontario, who has 760 points. Gary Irving of Toronto, Ontario, driving the Al Hinds Pro Modified entry, is fifth with 759 points.
Jack Brohman of Jarvis, Ontario, Sam Andreacchi of Toronto, Ontario, Jeff Roth of Kitchener, Ontario, Dave Earhart of Strathroy, Ontario, and Mark Nielsen of Brantford, Ontario, are sitting in sixth to tenth respectively.
Not only is the PMRA witnessing a tight points race this season, it has witnessed the setting of new benchmarks in both the series and for the Pro Modified class at an international level.
The Stawicki-driven, Jim Salemi-crew-chiefed G-Force Race Cars Firebird set speed and time records this year, recording a 5.803-second pass at Cayuga Dragway, along with a 255.25-mph speed at the same meet.
Another factor in this weekend's event will be the team of Paul Noakes and Tim Martin.
Noakes, of London, a former top-running Alcohol Funny Car driver, has joined forces with car-owner Martin of Barrie, and the team brings a lot to the table.
The fifth round of the Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts will also take place during the Stratford Spectacular event.
With over 40 cars anticipated in the Top Dragster and Top Sportsman classes that make up the Series, the Top Dragster team of White and Wild Racing with Scott Wildgust driving leads the racers with 839 points in the Championship Point Award Series.
Right behind Wildgust, who is from Wartburg, Ontario, is the 1955 Chevy Top Sportsman entry of Parkhurst Motors piloted by Steve Parkhurst of Belleville, Ontario with 812 points. Another Top Sportsman, the Grubb Racing 2004 Chevy Cavalier with Darrin Grubb of Pine River, Ontario behind the wheel, is third with 811 points.
Fourth with 807 points is the Top Sportsman entry of Wilson and Gray out of Ingersoll, Ontario, with Rob Gray driving the 2002 Chevy Cavalier. In fifth is the Top Dragster of Morgan Forrest Racing from Rochester, New York, with Buddy Forrest handling the driving chores.
The Stratford Spectacular Hot August Nationals presented by Ideal Supply & NAPA Auto Parts event will feature the popular Pro Modified Racing Association (PMRA), www.PMRA.ca, and the Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts, www.Quick32.ca, featuring Top Dragster and Top Sportsman action with quick six and seven-second cars, the event will feature Alcohol Funny Cars, Pro Fuel Dragsters and Wheelstander along with a fireworks display.
The first qualifying session is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. Saturday and round one of eliminations will take place Sunday, starting at 11:00 a.m.
Complimentary spectator event tickets will still be available at Ideal Supply & NAPA Auto Parts locations across Ontario, at businesses in Stratford, or by contacting the Quick 32 Sportsman Series or the Pro Modified Racing Association.
General parking is $20 per car load and weekend camping is available.

MELANIE TROXEL AND TOP NHRA GET SCREENED AMERICA PRO MOD DRIVERS TO COMPETE IN NHRA UNLEASHED PRESENTED BY LUCAS OIL AT O’REILLY RACEWAY PARK

GLENDORA, Calif. (Aug.2, 2010) — The Pro Mod field during the inaugural NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil event at O’Reilly Raceway Park will be full of many of the stars of the NHRA Get Screened America Pro Mod series including fan favorite Melanie Troxel. Also scheduled to appear are Roger Burgess, Raymond Commisso, Mike Knowles, Brad Personett, Derrick Townes, Danny Rowe, Michael Janis, Ike Maier and series points leader Von Smith. The NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil event will be at O’Reilly Raceway Park on Aug. 6 -7.

During the course of the NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil event, fans will be treated to some of the wildest and fastest Pro Mods that are the true definition of doorslammer racing. The field will consist of ’63 Corvettes, ’68 Camaros, ’67 Mustangs, ’68 Firebirds as well as late model cars. Each time down the quarter mile these cars are on the fine line of out of control and the fans in the stands will be on the edge of their seats each round of competition.

Troxel is anxious to race during the course of the weekend and put on a great show for the fans.

“The great thing about the Pro Mod class is you never know what you are going to get each time these cars take to the track. They have a lot of horsepower for such a short wheel base and these cars can get crossed up and sideways on each pass. I think they are the most exciting class to watch,” she said. “The professional nitro cars have incredible horsepower but I think the Pro Mods are true fan favorites. Fans are very lucky that they will be able to see these cars in a non NHRA national event weekend and it will be very exciting.”

Also the opportunity to race on the O’Reilly Raceway Park surface, home of the Mac Tools U. S. Nationals presented by Lucas Oil, is always special for Troxel no matter what the event.

“Obviously the Mac Tools U. S. Nationals presented by Lucas Oil is the premier event and it is the one you hear about,” said Troxel. “Living in Indy allows us to come out and race here more than once a year and that is great.

NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil is a celebration of Pure American Horse Power and will feature some of the fastest street cars on the planet racing for a shot at immortality and a coveted NHRA Wally trophy.

Classes featured during the day of racing range from an 8.5 second class to 13.0 class, Outlaw 10.5, Limited Street, EZ Street and Modified Street.

The schedule for the two days will feature one round of qualifying on Friday night with two more qualifying sessions taking place on Saturday during the course of the day. Following the three rounds of qualifying it will be time for the drivers to prove what they have under the lights that will shine brightly during the course of the nights racing activity.

The NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil tickets are $10 for Friday, on Saturday they will be $20, with a two day pass being offered for $30. Families with children 12 and under will be able to bring them to the NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil event for free with paid adult.

Tickets are currently on sale for the NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil event at O’Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis as well as racer registration.

NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil will be featured nationwide on Fox Sports Net in a series airing on consecutive weeks in November and December 2010. Two half-hour shows will be produced from each of the four NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil events, including the one at O’Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis and the events taking place at National Trail Raceway near Columbus, Ohio (Sept. 10-11), Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville, Fla. (Nov. 5-6), and the recently completed event at Atlanta Dragway in Commerce, Ga. The shows will be hosted by Steve Watson and Sarah Karges and produced by Disrupt/ive Studios, producers of PINKS ™, PINKS ALL OUTTAKES™ and PINKS ALL OUT™.

The NHRA Unleashed presented by Lucas Oil events also will provide casting auditions for “Who Wants to be a Race Car Driver?” a new reality television show that will identify America’s next great race car driver. Interested participants attending the event will be ushered through interviews and on-camera auditions for the new show that is currently in the developmental stages. Those selected for the show will prove that they have the drive, ambition and desire to become the next great race car driver. Signage will be clearly posted throughout the event to direct candidates to the staging areas.
