Drag Racing — 05 September 2008


Denton, Tx — The Applied Tool and Supply / TigerFlow Top Alcohol Funny Car Team of Nancy Matter recently became the recipient of the team’s first win at North Star Dragway in Denton, Texas.  The event was the second anniversary of North Star’s July Spectacular Racing event.  The eighth mile event included Nitro Burning Altereds along with Aaron Tatum and Brandon Lewis’s (piloted by Kate Harker) Top Alcohol Dragsters.

The match race was contested by Matter and fellow competitor, Jim Phillips, who traveled down from Southern Indiana for the event.  Both Teams were vying for the best two out of three passes with extremely quick servicing times between rounds.

“We made three passes in less than four hours and we were down two crew guys” notes Matter.  ”Jeremy one and Jeremy two, along with myself all did double duty to make sure everything was done before we were rushed up to the lanes for the next lap.”

“Jim Phillips and I were one to one going into the third pass which made it really great for the fans.  We ended up with the win from the third pass with a pedaling job of 4.04 at close to 190 miles per hour in the eighth to Jim’s time of 4.22 at just over 180 miles per hour.”

Matter‘s team is very motivated and are looking forward to their next NHRA race which will be contested in the middle of August.

In addition, Matter is in the developmental stage of having her own clothing line that will be available soon.
