We are privileged to know Roger and are gratefully for the opportunities that he has presented us.”
Kate made the decision in March to step back from driving duties to focus her energies into the teams marketing programs for the 2009 season. Whilst at the same time resuming her crew duties on her father’s Top Alcohol Funny car and helping him win his second NHRA National event in Topeka, KS earlier this year. Kate also cheered on as identical twin sister; Diana wheeled the Meyer Racing dragster to three finals and became the First Australian Women to win an NHRA National event.
“It has been tough to sit on the sidelines, but I believe things happen for a reason and if I had not stepped back to focus on our marketing we could have missed a lot of opportunities” said Harker “I am excited to be driving the car usually occupied by my twin, Diana. Randy and Mary Meyer have a first class operation and I know the team goes to the start line with a fast and safe vehicle. I have every confidence in the team and myself this weekend.”
Twin sister, Diana will take on the role of head cheer leader this weekend sharing her driving experience of the Meyer A/Fuel dragster with Kate. Diana has competed with Randy and Mary Meyer at twelve events this season. They currently sit 8th in the Lucas Oil National points and 3rd in the Division 5 series. R2B2 Motors will continue their support as Diana will resume driving duties at the LODRS Division Four event in Shreveport, LA across October 3-5, 2008.
