In a night of racing on Atlanta Motor Speedway’s pit road drag strip, drivers faced off last week in Friday Night Drags action.

In the New Edge Division, a close race brewed between Steve Shaffer in his 2018 Chevrolet Corvette and James Walker in his 2016 Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Walker had already won the Peach Pass Burnout Zone Competition and was ready to take home his division.

In the final round, Shaffer and Walker raced down the strip in a battle of sports car horsepower. As all bets were on the Corvette, Walker turned the tables and drove his Hellcat to victory.

“Basically tonight I needed to hook up”, said Walker. “The whole idea for me is to get the power to the ground. I’ve been working on that for a while and it finally came together tonight. I know the car has a lot of horsepower so my focus is to really keep that power to the ground and make those runs as strong as I can.”

In the QuikTrip Pro Division, an extremely tight battle down the strip ensued between David Clevinger and Kevin Mayo. Ultimately, Mayo came out on top.

Likewise, in the Harbin’s Mechanical Services Street Outlaw Division, Wayne Harris battled Arnie Cobb. The two were neck and neck down the entire strip. As the finish line light glowed, Harris was declared the winner.

“I had to have good reaction time off the light”, explained Harris. “He (Cobb) came sprawling of the other end, he probably wasn’t even a bumper or a fender away from me it was that close.”
