June 11, 2005 Lone Star Raceway



June 16, 2005 - Rockdale, TX - New Breed Racing, the sister and brother team Alesi and Ayrton Gerthe, roll into the “Alamo City” for the rescheduled race in the second stop of the Division 4 Renegade Shootout and Pro-Am Series this weekend, June 17 – 19, 2005, at San Antonio Raceway. Hoosier Thunder Motorsports team owners, Terry and Rhonda McMillen and the Amalie Oil InstiGator Team through the IHRA Adopt A Jr. Dragster Program, sponsor the IHRA Division 4 Junior Dragster Team, from San Antonio Raceway, along with Amalie Oil, TORCO Racing Fuels, Flatout Gaskets and NGK Spark Plugs. The cars are running well, with Ayrton making it down to six cars and Alesi making a final round appearance, finishing second at the bracket race held last Saturday, June 11, 2005 at Lone Star Raceway Park in Sealy, Texas. The weekend proved to be an excellent opportunity for Alesi and Ayrton, as well as the team, to prepare for the upcoming divisional. At this stage of the racing season, things not only heat up with the various points races, but the temperatures are rising in the Lone Star state, so we have to prepare for the hot and humid Texas days and the somewhat cooler nights at the tracks. With bracket racing, the key is consistency, so we have been tuning the cars to run as consistent as possible given the weather conditions. Alesi and Ayrton would like to thank Hoosier Thunder Motorsports Team owners Terry and Rhonda McMillen and the InstiGator Team, Amalie Oil, TORCO Racing Fuels, Flatout Gaskets, and NGK Spark Plugs for being the best sponsors in the racing industry. Also, thanks to the IHRA, Sherrie Barbour, and Drag Review for your support of jr. dragster racing.
