Canadian racer participation during the recent NHRA Lucas Oil Nationals in Minnesota was again significant and we have a photo extra to prove it!….

Ken and Scott Murray (from Winnipeg) raced their very pretty looking T/D at Brainerd. They qualified #5 (at 6.236 secs) and then deservingly received the event’s “Best Appearing Car” award!

Alberta index racing power Ken Mostowich raced both his S/C Camaro and S/G Corvette at the Lucas Oil Nationals.

The Manitoba-based injected nitro cars owned by Clif Bakx and Doug Doucette were both entered at BIR. Driven by Gord Gingles and Alan Bradshaw respectively — they both fell victim to eventual event winner Joey Severence during eliminations.

A newcomer to the NHRA national event racing scene was this ’93 Achieva SS/DM entered by James Nicol from Pilot Butte SK.

Another 2-car Canadian team was fielded by Manitoba’s Kevin Dyck for Super Comp and Super Gas eliminators.

Jeff Crooks (from Brandon MB) had a nice event in S/G with his ’68 Firebird – winning three rounds of competition.
