JETS ROAR AT
ROCK’S SUPER CHEVY SHOW SERIES
Ward Doubles Up in Footbrake, Gray, Cain, Marshall, Peedin,
Warren Also Win
ROCKINGHAM, N.C. – Marine Corps veteran Dewayne Hill drove the
House of Kolor dragster to victory in Saturday’s jet car
feature and two-time reigning Rockingham Dragway track champ
Matt Ward swept the Footbrake competition at the biggest
all-Chevy event in the Carolinas, the Innovative Performance
Technologies Super Chevy Show presented by the Richmond County
Tourism Authority.
Hill, who spent eight years in the Marines before earning a
degree in aeronautics, used a .019 of a second reaction time
to turn what could have been a close race with Larsen
Motorsports teammate Zach Costello into a romp. Hill won in
5.921 seconds at a speed of 268.65 miles per hour. Costello, a
recent graduate of Florida Tech where he earned a degree in
aerospace engineering, trailed at 5.926, 270.37 mph.
Ward and his Anderson, S.C.-based 1969 Camaro enjoyed a near
perfect weekend capped off with final round victories over
Lake Waccamaw’s Perry Green Ryan Snipes of Lancaster, S.C.,
both of whom fouled away their opportunity.
Had he not gone .007 under his target number against
Lumberton’s Thomas Cain in the Saturday Top ET final, Tanner
Gray of Holly Springs could have matched Ward’s perfection.
Instead, he had to settle for a win and a runner-up in a 1974
Camaro in which he bested the ’65 Corvette of Tommy Hilburn on
Sunday.
Other on-the-track winners were Hunter Marshall of Pinehurst
who won the Innovative Performance Technologies Jr. Street
title, Selma’s Skylar Peedin, who prevailed in the newly-added
Jr. Dragster class, and Dunn’s Thurman Warren, who won in the
DOT and Trophy eliminator classes.
The event also featured a Chevy-centric car and truck show in
which the 1967 Camaro of Durham’s Terri Blackburn was judged
Best of Show and Randy Wilson’s Woodlawn, Va.-based 1970
Camaro was the Gold Cup winner.
