“These racers did an incredible job, especially with some night racing under the lights hiding ruts and other challenging track conditions that ate up some of the most formidable opponents,” stated Ken Warner, VP of Marketing for Mickey Thompson. “Track conditions get tricky, and that’s when raw talent and great tires give racers the edge. We congratulate all the racers for the stunning performances they exhibited again this past weekend.”
