Rislone Jr. Drag Racer Spotlight: Ryan Hann

Former 8-9 yr. old division champ ready to jump into the 8.90 ranks

DUNCANSVILLE, Pa. - Defending Pittsburgh Raceway Park 8-9 yr. old Jr. Dragster Champ Ryan Hann and his Rislone Engine Treatment backed team will be making the jump into the 8.90 class for the 2007 season. The 10 yr. old driver plans to compete for the points championship at Beaver Springs Raceway along with stops at the IHRA Jr. Dragster Nationals and the Rislone All-Star DRAG NEWS Challenge at Pittsburgh Raceway Park.

Hann not only won the 8-9 yr. old Championship at Pittsburgh Raceway Park, but went on to win the track's Race of Champions. He also went to the semifinals of the Jr. Dragster Race of Champions at the Division 3 Bracket Finals.

When not wheeling his Bar's Leaks sponsored Jr. Dragster down the dragstrip, Hann has been successful in the classroom, recently receiving the A/B award in this past marking period at Claysburg-Kimmel Elementary.

"The best part is meeting all the new people that come up and talk to me at the track," said Hann. "I have made some great friends at every track we go to."

"Ryan wants to do this for a career someday," stated his father, Jeffrey. "With all the hard work he puts in, I can honestly see him doing it. He really hammers the practice tree in between rounds and it shows. I'm having more fun being his crew chief than I ever did racing myself."

"Rislone has a proud drag racing history and since we, Bar's Leaks, purchased the company last year, we have returned the company's marketing program to it's roots," commented Clayton Parks, VP of Marketing & Development for Bar's Leaks and Rislone. "We can't be more proud to have a young driver like Ryan on our team with hopes of continuing this partnership for many years."

In addition to receiving support from Rislone and Bar's Leaks, the team would like to thank Premier Rental/Purchase, Dave's Computer Service, IKON Custom Paint, NAPA - Duncansville and LONG'S Trucking.
