Wild Card Racing 's N/FC Duster at Darrell Gwynn's Show of Shows
Gainesville Raceway Winners
Our friend Michael Harrigan
of Florida's Wild Card
Racing sent us an offseason update:
Winners from Gainesville Raceway's
January 1 6th, 201 6 bracket racing in
Super Pro, Pro ET, Sportsman, Pro
Cycle and Jr. Dragster.
"We started our season at
the Darrell Gwynn Show of
Shows. We displayed and
then started the car for the
crowd with the help of Paul
Smith, Paul Richards,
Steve Gruenwald and Jim
Campello. We won "The
Darrell" which is Darrell's
personal choice for the event which was an awesome surprise! Was a nice night
and a large crowd. I included a link of the video Leonard Tribble made of us
running as well as a few pics (https://youtu.be/ssFYKvQFvhQ).
Super Pro:
Our first event will be the IHRA Nitro Jam in Orlando March 4-6. I will feed more
details as we solidify them. Have a great season and I'll keep in touch!"
Thanks and best of luck, Michael!
