Official Fuel System of Hot Rod Drag Week

Sat, Sep 10, 2011

Aeromotive is proud to be announced as the Official Fuel System of Hot Rod Drag Week. Drag Week’s endurance test was designed to crown America’s Fastest “Real” Street Car. This year will be no exception. More than 150 competitors will set off from Heartland Park Topeka in Topeka, Kansas starting on September, 11 and drive more than 1200 miles in 5 days. Not only will these cars be tested on the road, they will have to drag race at every stop, accumulating point along the way. At then end of the week, only one car will be crowned America’s Fastest Street Car. Although there will be more winners as Drag Week participants can compete in 1 of 12 classes with the Unlimited class being the coveted overall winner.

Aeromotive Fuel Systems is proud to have fueled the overall winner the past 4 years, including last year’s Unlimited Champion and record breaking performer, Larry Larson and his ’66 Nova.

“We are extremely excited for this year’s event,” said Jesse Powell of Aeromotive Fuel System. “We will be doing the entire trip this year, providing support and advice where we can. We know that a lot of these guys are our customers so it’s great to be out there with them and show them support. Plus, this is the ultimate endurance test for any performance aftermarket part. There is a lot of great stories to tell with these cars,” Powell continued.
