Valden Raises the Bar Again

Rob Valden and Andrew Alepa continued making headlines with the Alepa Racing C7 RvW Corvette at the RTRA race in Denton, TX last weekend. The PLR Hemi-powered Corvette ran a 3.80@206mph, which now stands as the world's quickest ET for a turbo radial car!

Congrats to Andrew, Rob, Chase Driskell, Steve Petty, and the whole Alepa Racing team on the new accomplishment!
