Brothers Make Podium at IHRA Tulsa Pro-Am Sportsman Class Event
- 8 May 2007
The second IHRA Division 4 Pro Am event at Tulsa Raceway Park was successful for
the Folk Racing Team. Sportsman drag racers Ron Folk and his sons Brian and Nick
are competitors from Durand, Illinois.
Folk Racing Team wins in Super Rod
Brian Folk kicked off the team’s weekend by scoring a victory in Super Rod on day one of a two day event. Folk drove his Cavalier to a final round victory over Michael Hunt. He also knocked off former world champion Jimmy Lewis in the semi-final round and local standout Philip Wallen in the quarterfinals.
Not to be outdone, Nick Folk joined his brother Brian in the winners circle the next day. Nick Folk won his second Stock Eliminator victory of the season, driving his Camaro to the title over another former world champion.
“It’s a typical deal,” said Brian Folk. “We had a good weekend, but it could have been a lot better. We really struggled in Top Dragster, but we can’t complain, two wins against this level of competition is certainly a great weekend.
The Folk Racing Team uses K&N Products on all of their vehicles. “Our engine guys always brag about how clean our cylinder walls are due to the K&N Filters,” said Nick Folk. “K&N products protect all our engines from the debris on the race tracks.”
Brian and Nick Folk plan to test a few things on their cars this weekend, before going to back to back IHRA Racing weekends.
