2015 Chevrolet Performance Shootout Race Wrap from Summit Motorsports Park

Rescheduled to be hosted at the 14th annual NMCA Flowmaster World Finals in Norwalk, Ohio, the Chevrolet Performance Shootout came to Summit Motorsports Park, August 27–30. The quickest cars of the Chevrolet Performance Shootout compete in JE Pistons Drag Radial presented by K1 Technologies, and Anthony Manna was the quickest, posting a 4.31-second elapsed time (eighth-mile) at 180 mph—some 8 mph faster than No. 2 qualifier Mark Carlyle. Carlyle went out in the first round, and it was David Atkins that would face Manna in the all-fourth-gen-Camaro final. Adkins took a slight advantage at the hit (.114 to .128), but Manna's black machine powered past, running 4.35 at 179 to Adkin's 4.61 at 167. For complete event coverage, visit the NMCA website.
