The 13th Annual Heartland Nationals at Atoka Motorsports Park concluded on Sunday with some of the best racing we have seen all year. First off, in the Top Alcohol final round Gary Mink and Scott Carroll put on an awesome show with Gary taking a 2.70 to 2.74 decision by just .016 at the stripe. Of course the Top Eliminator guys had to one up that one as Texas’ Courtney Stidham made it back-to-back Heartland Nationals wins in a thrilling final round race against Tim Martin decided by just .007 at the stripe. Sunday’s Pro Bracket classes also saw some great battles as Tim Feuerhelm (Pro 1 Cars), Kirk Whitlow (Pro 1 Quads), and Ashley Ralston (Pro 2 Cars) emerged victorious. Run Sheets & Sunday Videos are now online. (5-30)

The month of May is upon us, which tends to be the busiest month of the sand drag racing season. NSDN will be at three big events in this month with Daily Race Coverage. This will kick off May 13-15 with coverage from the Mertens Heavy Equipment Repair Springnational Sand Drags at the Mohave County Fairgrounds in Kingman, AZ. This event looks like it’s going to be a great west coast event to close out the first half of the season, before taking a Summer Break. I want to thank all of the individuals that made the coverage of this event possible; Hammer Down Racing (Dennis Rieck), 2 Dolla’ Bill/Heavy Metal Racing (Rick & Billy Morris), Kingman Sand Drags/Route 66 Wings & Wheels, Coldwater Kid T/F (Dwight & Matthew Ludlow), and Swag Racing (Mike Erwin).
