BROWN LOOKING FOR FIRST EVER VICTORY AT VIRGINIA

North Dinwiddie, VA – Antron Brown, driver of the Matco Tools Top Fuel Dragster, headed to Virginia Motorsports Park, a track where he’s never won an event.

Richmond Event Highlights: Two-time runner-up (2009, 2019)

2019 Richmond Recap:Qualified 11th; Event runner-up (defeated Leah Pruett in E1, Brittany Force in E2, Mike Salinas in E3; defeated by Steve Torrence in E4)

Last Event (Charlotte 1): Qualified ninth; First round exit (defeated by Justin Ashley, Cameron Ferre in E1)

Career Statistics: 467 races; 68 wins (16 Pro Stock Motorcycle); 49 No. 1 qualifiers (11 PSM)

Noteworthy: Powered to a runner-up finish at the 2019 event, the last time an NHRA Camping World Series race was contested at Virginia Motorsports Park

Virginia Motorsports Park is one of only two facilities (incl. Bristol Dragway) on the current NHRA tour where Brown has yet to race to victory

Quotable: “Always love going to the Richmond track and getting back on the East Coast. I have some unfinished business at Virginia Motorsports Park. I’ve been to the finals there a few times, most recently in 2019 the last time we were there, but I’ve never been to the Richmond winner’s circle. It’s one of the few remaining tracks on the tour that I’ve never won, and I’m ready to take care of business there this weekend. But first, we’ve got to go out and qualify well, and take it one round at a time and put ourselves in the best position to make it a long race day on Sunday. Our Matco Tools/Lucas Oil team is hungry. We’re starving, actually, and we’re looking forward to getting out there and doing the work.”
