Harrison TWP. MI. … The 2012 season has been a long climb up
the TA/FC ladder for Todd Robertson. The switch from doorslammer to flopper has
been a long strenuous one for Robertson and his team but, this weekend will mark
Robertson’s first time running an NHRA national event in TA/FC and win, lose or
draw, this is a moment no one on the Pro Power Motorsports team will forget.
“We’ve all done so much to get to this point and this
weekend really means something to everyone on the team,” said Car Chief, Rocco
Wilson. “Our crew has been through a great number of growing pains this year
but they’ve all lead us to this point and we hope we can make the most of what’s
at hand,” added Wilson.
Crew Chief, Dennis Kolomyjec understand the weight of the
moment but also realizes he needs to keep his team well grounded this weekend.
“Running an NHRA National is just one of the goals we set for ourselves this
season. Trust me, there are a lot of smaller ones we checked off the list on our
way to this point but, there are many more to come. We need to understand the
gravity of what we are doing and what we have in front of us. Staying focused as
a team will help us reach our other goals,” said Kolmyjec.
Robertson and his team attended the division 3 event at
Route 66 earlier this month but failed to make the tough eight car field; this
weekend’s national event is a 16 car field.
Route 66 raceway in Joliet, Illinois, just outside of
Chicago, will host the 15th Annual O’Reilly Auto Parts Route 66
Nationals this weekend 6/29 through 7/1. The Lucas Oil Alcohol Funny Cars are
scheduled for three Qualifying runs. Two are scheduled for Friday at 11:30 AM
and 2:30 PM with another set for Saturday at 2:30 PM.
Final eliminations are scheduled for Sunday beginning at 11
AM.
