Mixed Results for Hunter at Winternationals TAFC Debut

POMONA, CA – Top Alcohol Funny Car newcomer Greg Hunter experienced the highs and lows of racing in his Synoil Racing Greg Hunterdebut at the NHRA Circle K Winternationals last weekend. The Wyoming driver posted a strong qualifying time but a simple mechanical failure ended his race day in the first round. Despite the mixed results, Hunter is still enthusiastic about his new ride.

“It was a spectacular weekend. I felt more comfortable in the car on each pass. We came out and made a great pass in the first qualifying session and felt we were on our way to a better finish. We would’ve won first round but the safety box shut the car off at 1000 feet. We were really disappointed about that but overall I’m very excited. The car is making a lot of power. We just need to get a handle on it,” Greg said.
