TULSA. Okla. - New Breed Racing's Alesi Gerthe competed at her third IHRA national event of the season at Tulsa Raceway Park, June 13-14, 2009.

The weekend began with a display for Wolverine at a Tulsa area Academy.

"We had a great time at the Wolverine Boots and Apparel/Academy Sports and Outdoors display. It is always fun to introduce potential fans to the sport of drag racing. Wolverine's Jeremy Pevehouse brought all kinds of goodies for the display and fans had the opportunity to win a free pair of Wolverine boots. We would like to extend our thanks to Wolverine, Academy and Harmony from IHRA for putting together an awesome display," said Alesi.

"Rain delayed Sunday's race and we were not able to race first round until around 3:00 pm. We lost a close race in round one, but I've put that behind me and I am ready to hit the track again this weekend," said Alesi.

The next race on the schedule is a divisional at Pine Valley Raceway, June 19-21, 2009.
