The 2009 version
of the NSDA Primm Valley Resorts Spring Nationals lived up to expectations. A
large car count along with tight racing showed why this event is highly
regarded as one of the top sand drag racing events of the season. An example of
the close racing was in the unbelievable Top Eliminator class with eight
entries qualifying at 2.99 seconds or better, then to top it off after an
awesome day of eliminations the final round was decided by a mere .005. That
was all just in one class, across the board there was incredible action in all
classes. Let’s take a look back at some of the more memorable racers and cars
from the weekend through photos from our friends at C3 Productions – www.c3productions.net or www.myspace.com/c3productionsphotos.

15th and 16th to kick off that series, and most other tracks have at least one

great to have racing getting started again around here and it appears like its

able to be set. This race saw tough competition from start to finish and some
surprise winners taking home the trophies at the end of the day.
