BAKERSFIELD,
CA (June 01, 2008) -- Reports keep pouring in on the success of Hoosier's new
Nostalgia Top Fuel tire. Now, we hear that Troy Green (photo) won using the new
tire at Famoso Raceway in the NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Racing Series.
Green not only drove his High Speed Motorsports dragster to the win at
Famoso, he also set low ET with a time of 5.71 seconds in round one and top
speed in the final at 261 mph.
Following up his strong performance in California, Green traveled to Bowling
Green, Kentucky where he again set low ET and top speed of the event. Green

Green used the same pair of Hoosier's 12.00-16 NT/F tires (#18975NT/F) at
both events.
