Two fan favorites -- Erica Enders and Peggy Llewellyn -- called to tell me they'll be back on tour in the very near future.
Enders and her Dragstar Apparel Pro Stock team, which is owned by Jim Cunningham, has been working non-stop on getting its two Ford Mustangs up to speed. They will make their season debut next weekend in Florida at the 41st annual Tire Kingdom NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville Raceway.
Llewellyn has teamed with Junior Pippen and crew chief Rick Maney and will begin racing a Buell V-Twin on April 9-11 at the 23rd annual O’Reilly NHRA Spring Nationals at Houston Raceway Park. She has a sponsorship deal in place but isn't ready to announce the details just yet.
Both girls are from Texas so they're particularly excited about the Houston race. Enders hails from Houston, while Llewellyn calls San Antonio home. They also both race as teammates to their bosses, Enders with Cunningham and Llewellyn with Pippen.
In a time when car counts are dwindling, getting these two stars back seems like big step in the right direction. Good luck, girls.
