Las Vegas, NV – Cody Perkins and his 801 Racing sponsored Dragster are looking for some home track advantage for this

weekend’s Division 7 race. Even though the Perkins Team is from Utah, they consider the Las Vegas Motor Speedwaytheir home track. The previous weekend’s National event provided the necessary background information needed to go faster.

“We are going to get after it a little harder for the divisional,” quoted Perkins. “Low 30’s is the goal, if we tickle it just right.  We can step on it with confidence and we want to go fast.”

The advantage of having a divisional race at the same track as the previous weekend is that the information obtained is still relevant. The disadvantage is that many other Alcohol teams stuck around with similar thoughts.

“Once again it will be a stout field,” added Perkins. “They also have more run data, so it’s up to us to step up.”

The season is coming to an end, and the Las Vegas divisional race is a great place to tie together lessons learned throughout the year. Not quite a final exam, that awaits the following weekend in Pomona. This race is all about defending home plate, and Perkins and the 801 Racing Team are planning on serving up a big heaping portion of home cooking.
