Eric and the SRE Crew competed for the second time in 2001 at the Fourth annual Route 66 Nationals, May 31- June 3, Joliet, IL. (Click here to go to the official NHRA Web site for the results).
The
weather is much better than expected. It is not raining this Saturday,
and the Team members are in a great mood. It takes so many Team efforts
to prepare the vehicle for just a 7 second run. The Team members work
always very hard, they have several years of experience in PRO STOCK racing,
and they love it.It is the time to pull out the DODGE AVENGER from the
PIT, and get ready for next race. Expectations are very high, since everything
seems to be perfectly ready.
Eric
Shelton, the Owner/Driver, is also in good mood. He always finds time
to talk to people passing by the Pit and asking questions. Racing is not
only hard work and high risk, but also a lot of fun. You can meet many
interesting people who love speed and powerfull race cars.
Waiting
in line for next race. The Crew members, Cliff, Andy and Andy's son, are
discussing the last details before the start. They alway stay calm, and
like to discuss various important matters. So much depends on these guys,
and they can always be depend on. Andy's son is only 13 years old, but
he know about the cars more than other
The
DODGE AVENGER driven by Eric Shelton, has just taken off for the next
race.
There
is not much time between the races, and the Crew has very limited time to
get everything ready. They have to disassamble the most important components
of the car, to make sure that they qualify for another run. Later, they
have to put all the parts back, and test the vehicle. They have been doing
that for so many years, so they know exactly, what their responibility is.....
