“We are very excited to be a part of the 49th Annual Cornwell Tools Night Under Fire!” said Bill Cromling, owner of Ross Environmental. “Mountain Motor Pro Stock is THE hottest class in Drag Racing! To be able to showcase this class at ‘The Greatest Show in Drag Racing’ here at America’s Racetrack is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these drivers and teams.
