Las Vegas, NV. -- Cody Perkins and the 801 Racing Team are looking to finish up the year strong after going as far as the second round at the Big O Tires Nationals this past weekend. The team missed the first round of qualifying when it was discovered that they had broken the chassis in transit.
"We got behind the 8 ball to start, but we worked together and got it fixed," said Perkins. "The key to going rounds is making runs when the conditions are good."
Fortunately there were no other issues or breakage all weekend. Perkins later qualified in the number ten spot with a 5.400 elapsed time at 260.11 miles per hour. In the first round, Cody and the 801 Racing Dragster defeated Aaron Tatum with a stellar 5.362@264.44. Tatum is a top 10 point player and it was a rematch of the Topeka final. In Sunday's second round, Chase Copeland was treated to a .006 light by Cody. The 801 Racing Dragster was in the lead to about the thousand foot mark when Copeland's top end charge gave him the win. The day of racing was over, but there was a great deal to be happy about.
The weekend's big winners were Karin Roberts and Teresa Mora. They both won tickets to the race on 801 Racing's Facebook giveaways page. They were also treated to a tour of the pits, a close-up view of Cody's dragster and free 801 Racing T-shirts.
"It was great to meet Karin and Teresa, as well as everyone else who stopped by our pits," added Perkins. "We were happy with the data, and we are looking forward to getting back out there. We have a good start on next weekend's Division 7 race"
Perkins and his 801 Racing Top Alcohol Dragster Team have gathered the information and have the right parts, the support staff and the right attitude to finish the year strong.
