GALOT Motorsports made a strong showing at the inaugural X-Treme Drag Racing League (X-DRL) event and earned a great runner-up finish in the X-Treme Pro Mod class.

GALOT driver Kevin Rivenbark wowed the crowds with his 3.993 at 184.65 MPH pass during X-Treme Pro Mod qualifying, ranking third overall. Piloting his 2005 Pontiac Firebird, Rivenbark’s first round run in eliminations was clean and true, securing him a spot in the second. After staging the GALOT Firebird at the tree in the next round, Rivenbark dropped the hammer to run a 4.0 at 193.53 MPH pass and would advance yet again. In the finals, Rivenbark pushed hard and had his quickest and fastest pass of the weekend! With a strong 3.969 at 186.18 MPH, Rivenbark was just 20 feet behind the winner when he crossed through the traps to finish second, taking home the X-Treme Pro Mod runner-up title.

Todd “King Tut” Tutterow has already had tremendous success this season, and was busy fine-tuning his Precision Turbo & Engine boosted 1967 Ford Mustang GT500′s performance in the Pro Extreme class. While Tutterow did not make it through eliminations, the team was able to gather some critical data and expects to be running even stronger in the near future.
