The Junior Team from Texas is Ready to Roll!
I arrived in the Texas pit just as the racing crew took off. But Jake's Dad was pleased to share a little info with me as I strolled around, this evening. These stunning cars run the 7.90 index of the Junior Division of ADRL racing, topping at 72-79 mph in the 1/8th.
Brooke and Raven live just 5 doors from each other...Jake, on the other hand, is 150 miles from both of them. But these friendly competitors have joined to form a Texas alliance that travels together whenever they can get their names on the ADRL list.
The Juniors qualify based on reaction times.

Local Junior: Battle Creek's own "T-Dog", Trevor Wilson makes his debut at Martin ADRL Race!
15 year old Trevor attended the ADRL race here, at Martin, last year. As a veteran Junior Racer, it was an easy decision to come out and challenge the regulars to a
Michigan Mash on his own turf. Trevor is no slouch. When I saw him he was loading balast in his proudly polished black machine, in an effort to effectively slow it down. "She'll go 85 mph in the 1/8th." chimed the very personable Trevor.
Trevor aspires to earn a degree in mechanical engineering, following High School, so he can continue his passion for power and speed. Until then, you can tell this young man is just having a
BLAST.
