Winning is nothing new for twenty-year-old Blown Alcohol Dragster driver, Kenny Buzdas. Lately he's fought more than his fair share of battles in maintaining his past championship standards.

“We had some transmission and tune up issues at the first race and we ran well off the 6.30 second pace,” Buzdas said.” It’s going to be hot this weekend, but we strongly believe our tune up can handle the heat which will permit our Mickey Thompson tires to propel our car to the winners circle.”

The former two-time Western Conference Jr. Dragster and 2007 Top Eliminator West Series Champion, hopes to establish some winning momentum this weekend at 33rd annual Nitro Night of Fire held at Sacramento Raceway in Sacramento, CA.

Formerly known as Top Gas West, this exciting Advanced ET category is a Pro Comp style class where Funny Cars, Altereds and Dragsters compete on a 6.30 quarter mile index. The top eight cars closest to the index in two qualifying attempts, without exceeding the 6.30 second standard will qualify for final eliminations.

“The format for the Top Eliminator West class is very exciting,” Buzdas, who has won three of eight TEW races entered. “It’s a ‘run what ya brung’ style of class- anything goes. We race on a pro (0.400 second) tree and its very exciting side-by-side bracket racing at 200 plus miles per hour.”

The competition will be tough for the J. Ray Concrete team as they look to build some momentum for the remainder of the six-race season.

“We leave Sacramento after this weekend’s race head straight to Medford, Oregon,” concluded Buzdas. “We need a good race to get the momentum back on our side as we go after another TEW point championship.”
