There was a magnificent mix of Mopars racing down track during the Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024 presentation of the 2nd Annual Ken Ganley Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram World of Mopar presented by Edelbrock at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio.
In the final round of eliminations in Koffel’s Place Super Pro, Nick Sansom ripped off an .014 reaction time and a 6.49 elapsed time to claim victory over Jason Wheatcraft, who wheeled to a 5.27 on the top end of the track.
In CRT Transmissions Pro, Brian Hendrickson was .004 at the hit in his Demon, and that paired with a 12.42 on the high end of the track helped him secure the win over Jeff Russell, who turned in a 10.50 at the traps in his Barracuda.
A&A Transmission HEMI Super Stock was in action at this event, and racers had their cool cars dialed in. Among them were John Rendes and Hary Schillings, who went to the final round of eliminations. Rendes took the win with a 10.88 in his Coronet when Schillings turned on the red light in his Barracuda.
Mancini Racing Nostalgia Super Stock is a popular category across the country, and for good reason. The cars take racers and race fans a step back in time, and among those doing so at this event were Scott Taylor’s Belvedere and Gary Jacob’s Fury, which were featured in the final round of eliminations. Taylor pulled off the win with a 12.24 and Jacob arrived at the runner-up finish with a 9.70.
In TTi Performance Exhaust and Headers Sportsman, Scott Taylor traveled to a 12.26 in his 1966 Belvedere to take the win over Jeff Couts, who clocked a 12.18 in his 1970 Challenger. Impressively, Taylor also won in Mancini Racing Nostalgia Super Stock.
Pre-event enthusiasm enveloped the Timeless Timbers Gen III HEMI category, and in the final round of eliminations, Mike Malnar muscled his Duster to the win with a 9.76 over Donald Samber, who drove to an 11.90 in his Hellcat.
Congratulations to the Saturday winners of the well-attended event produced by Summit Motorsports Park, which runs through Sunday.
