Kent, Wash, - Cody Perkins and his 801 Racing Top Alcohol Dragster are not worried about a heat wave this weekend, in fact, they are counting on it. Hot track temperatures, heated rivals, and giving a scorching show for the fans is all part of the plan.
"Hot and slick is our kind of track," said Perkins. "The hotter it gets - the better. Earlier in the year, we ran a 5.38 in Topeka on a 130 degree track, so we are pumped up for this."
The Top Alcohol Dragster class at Pacific Raceways is also going to be tricky. A smaller entry list means the 801 Racing team will have to be on their game to advance come elimination time.
"It's a stout field," said Perkins. "Its going to be tough to just get out of the first round."
Perkins knows about working with tough conditions. While prepping the car for this race, he spent five straight hours cutting Aluminum and Magnesium while working on engine components. He was covered from head to toe in bits of metal. Changing a flat tire on the team camper on the way to the race was another "dirty job".
"The boys from 801 Racing saw me changing the tire by the side of the road and stopped by to see what was going on," said Perkins. The Utah based Solid Fuel Technology Company bosses are attending their first major event this weekend and are looking forward to seeing their car and driver run hot tires down the track.
Cody Perkins plans on bringing the heat, and if all goes as planned, the heat will be on everyone else's mind.
