Kent, WA –  At the  conclusion of qualifying for the NHRA Northwest Nationals in Kent, Wasington, the Maddern Racing Top Alcohol Dragster remained in the pole position.  Their stellar performance of a 5.246 seconds at over 272 miles per hour is recorded as the second fastest pass ever in a blown alcohol dragster.

It is the 12th time that the Peen Rite/Clean Boost partnered team has earned the #1 qualifying position.  They were deemed as the team to beat in eliminations.

“It was an abrupt ending in the semi finals” noted Demke, “the car was so consistent and lady luck was seemingly in our favor.

“The car launched and knew I caught the tree just ahead of Megan, and then the engine just quit.  After further evaluation, we discovered a broken engine power connector and our weekend was over”.

The Maddern Racing Team sends a big congratulations to their friends and fellow competitor’s, Joey Severance for their win in Seattle.

The Maddern Racing Top Alcohol Dragster Team will next be racing at the 30th Annual running of the Lucas Oil Nationals in Brainerd, Minnesota, August 18th to 20th, 2011.
