A hot track and crappy air typically are not the ideal conditions to go out and break a class record, but apparently Jim Bell’s Camaro didn’t care, with Carl Stevens behind the wheel and Xtreme Racing Engines Hemi under the hood, the Team went out and blasted away the NEOPMA MPH Record, and broke the Maple Grove Track record three times!!!
4 Consistent 5.70 passes at 260 MPH took Stevens to the winners circle as well! Way to go Carl, Jim and Team!!

Posted May 15, 2018 by NCRC & filed under Racing News.
After a disappointing semi-final rain out last fall in MX235, Clint Downs came back this year swinging with a new alky combination in his Nova. Downs qualified #2 with a 4.84 and picked up every pass which took him to the final against Brad Medlock, the #1 qualifier. Clint got out first with a holeshot and didn’t look back to take the win with a 4.677@159.31 to Medlock’s 4.685@167.72.
Big congratulations to Clint, Amber, Corbin and Bob on the win!
Congratulations to JD Campbell and Team. JD took home the win at the brand new Xtreme Raceway Park in Ferris, Texas last weekend! We’re not sure what the final round ETs were, but he was laying down some 60’s in the 1.07 range during testing prior to the race so you can bet they were pretty good.
