When
discussing the race for the 2009 IHRA Pro Modified world championship,
only two names can be included as a part of the conversation – Ed
Hoover and Kenny Lang.
And they intend to keep it that way.
For the third consecutive race the two rival drivers met in the final
round of an IHRA national event, with Ed Hoover once again getting the
edge when it mattered most.
“It feels good to overcome the adversities we had this weekend. We put
an engine in last night until 3 a.m. and first thing this morning I did
a burnout and the thing had zero oil pressure,” Hoover said. “Luckily
the guy red lighted on me and we came back and got the engine fixed.
