Hagan And Crew Head Into The Last Leg Of The Season, Debut New Car

We're just going to go out there, do our jobs to the best of our ability, and see where we end up."

Matt Hagan's first season behind the wheel of a Knoll Gas Motorsports Nitro Jam series Nitro Funny Car has been punctuated with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. After a meteoric rise to the top of the field in the beginning of the year by winning events at Rockingham and Edmonton, Hagan has struggled in recent events and even failed to qualify for the Northern Nationals earlier this month.

Hagan needs near perfect performances in the remaining three national events to stay competitive for one of the top spots in his division. This weekend at the Rocky Mountain Nationals in Tulsa, Oklahoma Matt and his crew will be debuting the the team's brand new SHELOR.COM TOYOTA SOLARA that has been in development for several months.

"We're going to put the past in the past and look ahead," said Hagan. "We've got three events to make a difference and we've got a brand new car that we feel strongly is going to make us an even more competitive team. We're just going to go out there, do our jobs to the best of our ability, and see where we end up."

Hagan and crew will take the lanes for qualifying on Friday afternoon at 6:30 PM. Qualifying will resume on Saturday and eliminations begin on Sunday at noon. For live results as they become available log on to NitroJam.com. For more information on Matt Hagan Racing log on to loading MMD 2008....
