Snyder Wins First of the Season in Bristol

The Snyder Motorsports Top Alcohol Funny Car sponsored by TORCO Race Fuels capped off a busy month of July with their first victory of the season at Bristol Dragway this past weekend. Driver, Mick Snyder, was the #1 qualifier and had low ET of the weekend for the third time in as many races this month.

Snyder earned the #1 spot with a 5.84 at 244.78 mph. In the first round, Snyder collected the win setting the low ET of the round with a 5.90 at 245.58 mph. Snyder had a bye run in the semi-finals where he motored down the track at 5.92 and 245.40 mph giving him the all important lane choice for the upcoming final round. In the all Division 3 final, Snyder ran an impressive 5.83 at 245.54 mph to earn the win light. The run bettered his own low ET of the weekend and also moved him into the head of the Division 3 Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series points chase.

“It was a great weekend for us. All the pieces finally fell into place. This car has been running well for a while, but we just haven’t been able to make it to the winner’s circle,” remarked Snyder.

“It felt so good to win again. I have a great crew working on this car. They all volunteer their time each weekend, so it is nice to finally have the hard work pay off.”

“Evan and Brain and the whole TORCO Race Fuels family have given us so much support this year. It was nice to be able to give them something back this weekend. I can’t begin to thank all our sponsors enough for their continued support of this operation.”

The Snyder Motorsports Race Team will continue to defend last years Division 3 Championship in Cincinnati, Ohio August 6th thru the 8th at Edgewater Raceway Park.

As always, the Team would like to thank our major sponsor TORCO Racing Fuels and our associate sponsors Coan Converters, Design 500, Flatout Gaskets, Lencodrive Racing Transmissions, Long Printing, R & R Racing Products, Snyder Auto and Spitzer Race Cars for their continued support.
