Bryan Jimenez wins Pro Import; Dai Yoshihara Runner Up in Drift at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

by Carmen Smith Filed Under:

It was an exciting weekend of drifting and drag racing at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway this past weekend. The Vegas track provides a great venue for both drift and drag racing fans, with great views and easy access between the two tracks. Vegas weather in July tends to be brutal, but the weather gods were with us this weekend. A storm hovered nearby, providing strong winds and some clouds, which relieved us from the desert sun without actually raining on our parade.

Bryan Jimenez delivered a win for GM Racing and Chevy Cobalt, by powering through a full field of Pro Import competitors. It was great to see the line of cars trying to qualify for this class! Bryan started in the second qualifying spot and then picked-off each competitor for the final win. Congratulations to Bryan Jimenez and crew chief Juan Quintanilla. read more...
