Pro Stock Motorcycle rider Matt Guidera found Summit Racing Equipment Raceway Park in Norwalk, Ohio a
fitting venue to complete some unfinished business.
The four-time national event winner felt like he had the No. 1 qualifying spot in Englishtown but ended up second. This time he left no doubt with a 7.001 elapsed time at 187.11 which served as a provisional No. 1 qualifying effort at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals.
“We’re on a little bit of a mini-streak right now,” Guidera said. “We'd like to keep it going and hopefully get a number one qualifying position; that would be just remarkable for our team.”

Guidera, who won the NHRA Route 66 Nationals, used data from his first qualifying attempt to reel in the top spot in the evening. A quicker run to the eighth-mile made a huge difference.
“We were able to get a little bit better hold of the starting line and that just put me through the first eighth mile a little quicker; a 4.44 opposed to a 4.48 earlier today,” Guidera explained. “That was all front half. The track is coming in a little bit better and that's good because it wasn't that great this morning. I anticipate the track getting a little bit better tomorrow and hopefully we can lower our time a little bit more with a good tune up tomorrow.”
