“First off, having the opportunity to race at Summit Motorsports Park is always amazing, but add the fact that it is Friday Night – under the lights after NHRA Nitro Qualifying and then pile on that for the first time I will be running my teammate, makes this Friday night, one to remember.” Sarah said. “Rich was primarily my teacher when it came to learning how to drive a jet, so I am certainly looking forward to lining up next to him and see who’s got the better light.”

In addition to joining the NHRA at Summit Motorsports Park for their annual Summit Nats this Friday, Sarah Edwards will be back on Saturday August 11th competing in the inaugural North American Jet Car Championship at the 41st Annual Kelley Services Night Under Fire.
