KEARNEY, MO – Oct. 21, 2019 – Race Star Wheels congratulates sponsored driver, KB Racing’s Greg Anderson, on another win and trip to the Winner’s Circle at the AAA Texas NHRA FallNationals. Entering race day in the 10th qualifying position, Anderson used every bit of his experience to race his way to another national event win – even taking out number one qualifier and the Race Star Wheels Low E.T. Pro Stock Bonus winner Jeg Coughlin in the finals.
“The KB Racing team operates on a never quit attitude,” said L.B. Davis, owner of Race Star. “You can never count those guys out. Even when their qualifying position isn’t what they hoped for, when Sunday comes, they show how they can come back. That never quit attitude was certainly on display in Texas. They never count themselves out and they put in that work to get that win. We congratulate KB Racing. It was a fantastic win!”
While Anderson had to face teammate and Race Star sponsored Jason Line in round one of eliminations, he made sure that the winner of that race went on to claim the event victory. In round two, Anderson cut the best reaction time of eliminations at .003 against Erica Enders. In the semis, he had another stellar reaction time with .012 against Deric Kramer. In the finals, Anderson faced Coughlin where he put it all together in a run that had all three components check marked – a better reaction time, a better elapsed time and more speed.
The finals between Anderson and Coughlin was a matchup that Race Star was excited about. Continuing to award the Race Star Wheels Low E.T. Pro Stock Bonus at each race, Coughlin was the winner of the bonus after qualifying with a 6.509 low E.T. of qualifying.
“We’re extremely happy to see Jeg Coughlin get the low E.T. bonus award because JEGS Performance Parts has been a longtime customer of Race Star Wheels,” said Davis. “Jeg is a great competitor, no doubt about it and we’re glad to see him get the bonus for the first time. Jeg is one of the premier Pro Stock drivers today. He is an excellent driver and it’s good to see him win the award.”
