(07/04/07)-CALGARY, ALBERTA
The 2006 West Coast Pro Mod Association
Champion Joe Delehay and his championship winning PM Motorsports
team are on their way to Castrol Raceway this weekend for the IHRA
Rocky Mountain Nationals in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Just last weekend Joe and the team were in
Mission, BC for the EATON presented:”Fast and Furious on the
Fraser” for the second West Coast Pro Mod Association event of the
season. Delehay qualified number 5 in the 16 car field with a 6.203
@ 224.21 mph only to exit early in the second round of eliminations
after running his career best et and mph previously in the first
round of eliminations with a 6.190 @ 232.93 mph. “We ran the best
pass in my career with this new car” said Delehay, “We don’t
even have ten full passes on the car yet”.
With the tune up on the car getting closer the
team is expecting to run even better this weekend at the Rocky
Mountain nationals which will also be the team’s first IHRA event
with the new Tim McAmis Race Cars built 1968 Camaro Z-28. “We used
the first West Coast Pro Mod events as test seasons to get the car
prepared for the Rocky Mountain Nationals” say Crew Chief Ken
Eisler. “If the car runs as well as expected then we might take
the car to a couple more IHRA events”.
Joe Delehay has marked the Rocky Mountain
Nationals every year on his calendar since it the very first year
the IHRA came out to Western Canada. “It’s important to support
this event” says Delehay, “If we can get more events like this
in Western Canada then more teams would be willing to make the long
drive from the United States and attend the Western events”.
