TEAM ARUBA AND ALLTEL GEAR UP FOR ADRL’S INAUGURAL TRIP TO ZMAX
By Tristan Ralston on 26th July, 2012
UNION, S.C.- July 25, 2012: On August 3-4 the American Drag Racing League will visit the “Bellagio of drag strips,” zMax Dragway, for the first time. The ADRL moved their famed Dragstock event this year to match their premier event with one of the premier tracks in the country. While many have been looking forward to this event all year, perhaps none is as excited as the Aruba.com/Alltel Wireless Extreme Pro Stock team.
For Trevor Eman and the team from Aruba, Dragstock serves as their home event. The team bases their shop out of Union, S.C., just a short drive from the Concord, NC facility. To prepare for this event – which the team would certainly love to win – Eman and crew are testing at their local track Union County Dragway on July 30th.
“Union County Dragway is only about eight minutes from our shop,” told Eman. “We have never gotten a good opportunity to test at this track, which is only about two years old. But, we are finally getting the chance to and we would like to invite all of Team Aruba’s fans in the area to come hang out with us and also invite any other racer going to the Charlotte race to come test with us.” (www.unioncountyscdragway.com)
With the strong presence of Alltel Wireless in the Carolinas Team Aruba is working in conjunction with them to promote the upcoming ADRL event. On July 31st and August 1st Team Aruba will display at two separate Alltel Wireless locations to promote Dragstock with free tickets to the event.
“Following our test session on Monday the 30th, we will be doing a display for Alltel Wireless. Alltel will be giving away tickets for the ADRL race and also some Team Aruba t-shirts. On the 31st we’ll be at the Alltel Wireless store in Rockingham and the following day we’ll be at their location in Wadesboro. We’re really looking forward to these appearances and working with the local stores to promote the race and some great deals they are currently running.
“Alltel does a wonderful job servicing this region and they are great supporters of our team and drag racing, so we’re excited to display with them. I hope all our fans come in the Rockingham and Wadesboro areas stop by to see us and check out Alltel! [information below]
“Dragstock is always an exciting event,” Eman continued, “and being that this is our home stop, it makes it all that more exciting for us. Now the race being held at zMax is making it even more prestigious. We are looking forward to seeing and racing at this facility as it just seems to be an awesome one.
“We certainly hope to get as many of our fans from the surrounding area to our test session, displays and the race. It will be a whole week full of racing excitement!”
