Kathy Fisher Achieves Her Top Alcohol Dragster License At Frank Hawley's Drag Racing School On Mickey Thompson Tires



04/13/09

Stow, OH - Recently, Kathy Fisher of Performance by Fisher Racing was licensed in Top Alcohol Dragster at the renowned Frank Hawley’s Drag Racing School in Gainesville, Florida. Fisher left the school with many great memories, and was so impressed with the performance of her Mickey Thompson tires, that she is now devoted to the brand.

“We have studied the video of my Top Alcohol licensing passes quite a bit since December,” said Kathy Fisher. “We learned so much and were really surprised by the super performance of the Mickey Thompson slicks on the school car.”

“We got to really thinking about my last day of class,” Fisher continued. “The staff at Frank Hawley’s had once again done a fantastic job of preparing the track, and even though I was the only car on the track that day, I made my fastest passes ever. That car just stuck to the track. That’s a tribute not only to the school but also to the parts and products they choose to use. We wanted to see the same kind of results from tires on our team cars. It was my first time launching with a clutch on a blown alcohol car and my 60-foot times were rather consistent. In addition, all you have to do is take a look at folks like Bogacki and Williams, Jr., etc. They win because they are darn good racers and they know the products it takes to be consistent and go rounds on all kinds of tracks, under all kinds of conditions: Products such as Mickey Thompson Performance Tires.”

Kathy Fisher’s first event of the 2009 season will be at Budd’s Creek, Maryland (April 17-19) and the team has made the switch to Mickey Thompson tires.

“After seeing the results Mickey Thompson Tires provided for me in the school car, I cannot wait to begin utilizing their products at the IHRA double divisional event this weekend. In addition to the Mickey Thompson #3004 ET Drag Fronts on both team cars, the Quick Rod car will run Mickey Thompson #3185 (33.5/16.5-16) and Mickey Thompson #3186 (34.5/17-16) for the new 2009 Top Dragster.
