Extreme Pro Stock racer Pete Berner hits the eighth mile at South Georgia Motorsports Park this weekend in the ADRL Hardee’s Georgia Drags VI.
With new motors and a unique setup needed for eighth-mile racing in his Summit GXP, Berner has been on a bit of a learning curve during his time on the ADRL circuit.
“Our newest motors have been showing a huge amount of potential,” Berner said. “Unfortunately, we haven’t gotten the right combination to showcase that potential yet. We’re working with Dave Braswell [of Braswell Carburetors] to solve our fuel distribution issues. Hopefully with our new set of carburetors from Dave we’ll be able to find a solution this weekend and give people something to talk about.”
South Georgia Motorsports Park is a favorite stop for many racers on the tour, including Berner.
“South Georgia is one of my favorite tracks,” he said. “Wade (Rich, SGMP Operations Manager) always does a great job. I know the track will be perfect. I’m really looking forward to getting down there and seeing what this Summit GXP can do!”
Berner said he feels like he’s closer than ever to a win and ready to take home his first ADRL Minuteman trophy.
“I know we have what it takes to win in the ADRL. I know that my team is capable and our motor program is dynamite. We just need to work out that perfect combination,” he declared. “This Summit GXP has a lot of great fans at the ADRL and we want to make them proud.”
