Jody Lang Wins Stock Eliminator Division at Northwest Thunderfest in Spokane
- 10 Aug 2010
Jody Lang the veteran drag racer from Puyallup, Washington started racing his 1981 Malibu Wagon Stock Eliminator car back in 1993, and his trusty Malibu continues to do him right. He recently took the car to the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, Northwest Division, Thunderfest at Spokane County Raceway, and drove away with the win in the round five eliminations in the Stock Eliminator division. Lang's winning ET was 12.734 at 98.02 mph.
"Things are going good," said Lang, "Winning in Stock Eliminator at the Lucas race in Spokane, Washington really helped to make things good, that's for sure." "I made it a few rounds here and there at the four races in Sonoma, California a few weeks ago, and the Spokane race ends a very busy five race weekends in a six week stretch," added Lang. The stretch included four races in two weeks at Sonoma for Lang. Lang's plans for 2010 remain the same, he plans on racing all West Coast National Events - five Division 6 races and three Division 7 races. He is also entertaining plans of racing the Fontana Sports National this year. "We have the Seattle Lucas race coming up August 19-22. That Thursday Seattle hosts the make-up race from Mission Raceway back in May." Mission Raceway Park, also known as MRP, is located in Mission, British Columbia, Canada, and the earlier scheduled event back in May had to be canceled because of bad weather. Lang uses K&N oil and air filters, and valve cover breathers. "The K&N products as usual are great. The nut on the oil filters comes in very handy," says Lang.
