BAYTOWN, Texas – Despite the rescheduling of the season-opening ADRL Safety-Kleen Dragpalooza VI, Houston Raceway Park officials would like to clarify that the DragRaceHose.com Warm Up presented by Goodridge Hoses & Fittings will remain on the originally scheduled date, Mar. 5-7.

Last year was the first for the event and featured over 100 cars during the three day test. More entries are expected this year.

“Many of the racers in the region and beyond are starting their racing year off at the DragRaceHose.com Warm Up,” stated Hanna. “I really look forward to what the weekend will hold. Houston in March can be fast!”

Nestled the weekend between the NHRA Phoenix and Gainesville National events, the test should provide a great opportunity to teams wanting to test between those stops.
