WinnersCircle_web.jpgDrag Racing Season is one month away and the Aruban group TEAM ARUBA has left for Union, South Carolina to begin the necessary preparations for their first test for 2012 with the Extreme Stock Ford Mustang 2011. Due to the extreme cold weather in the US Team Aruba was unable to leave any earlier.

We can recall the fantastic performance that Extreme Pro Stock gave to fans of ADRL in 2011. It was one of the best years of drag racing. In every race in 2011 the first 16 cars had a difference of about 0.066. For this reason the test that they are about to do is of such importance for racer Trevor Eman and crew chief Tom Coon. The test drive is planned for Bradenton, Florida where several other teams will be of the Pro-Stock both for the ADRL and NHRA tests. After the weekend test, next week they will return to Union, S.C. where they will continue working on the automobile to prepare it for the first drag race of the ADRL in Baytown, Texas. Team Aruba is scheduled to do 10 races of ADRL and 2 invitational around the US.

Team Aruba has produced a colorful T-Shirt for 2012. Very soon this T-Shirt will be on the market and will also be available for purchase online via their website: www.teamaruba.com.  For those wanting to be among the first to have one of these T-Shirts, they can send an email to info@teamaruba.com with their shirt size to reserve their shirts.
