Norwalk: Mick Snyder preview

Snyder Ready for Norwalk

After a weekend off, the Snyder Motorsports Race Team sponsored by Powersource Transportation is ready to get back out on the track. This weekend, they will be taking Mustang Sally to Norwalk, Ohio for the Summit Racing Equipment Nationals.

Earlier this month, driver, Mick Snyder qualified number one for the very competitive Joliet divisional event with a 5.58 second pass at over 258 mph down the quarter mile. Unfortunately, in the first round, the car rolled through the lights and he was automatically disqualified.

"I can't say enough about the Team and the way that everything has come together performance wise this year. We are still trying to work through a few issues we have been dealing with and once we do hopefully we will start to win some rounds. Going into the year we knew we had a learning curve and this is just part of it. With each pass down the quarter-mile we gain data and everyone out here would tell you the more data you have the better off you are," said Snyder.

"We relaxed a little last weekend and spent some time on the motorcycles; now it is time to get back into race mode. We came here for the divisional earlier this year and got to check out the improvements they made to the track. They really did a great job with everything. I remember racing here back when we were all in Jr. Drag Racing and the place has changed a lot. It would be awesome to have everything come together and get our first Wally of the season here this weekend."

Qualifying begins on Friday at 2 PM. They will get another shot to make the 16 car field on Friday at 5:30 and the final one will come at 10 AM Saturday morning. First round of final eliminations is at 4:15 on Saturday and they will continue on Sunday following the pros.
