Weld Racing has reached an agreement with the Cagnazzi Racing NHRA Pro Stock
Team and sensation Erica Enders to compete exclusively with Weld Racing
Wheels in 2006.
22 year old Enders will drive the Slammers Ultimate Milk Chevy Cobalt
equipped with Weld Racing Wheels for Cagnazzi Racing and Crew Chief Roy
Simmons on the tough NHRA Pro Stock division. Enders is no stranger to NHRA
competition, as she has moved up the ranks from a humble beginning at The
age of 8 years old competing and winning in Junior Dragster with Division 4.
Just a few years later in 1995 she would be named Junior Dragster Driver of
the Year. Enders, who is studying Sports Marketing at Texas A&M University,
has turned a career-best elapsed time of 6.67, along with her best speed of
206.48 mph. Also with the Junior Dragster accolades, Enders has driven Super
Gas where she became the 35th woman in NHRA history to earn a national event
victory.
Super Comp and Top Alcohol Funny car competition were stepping stones to the
ultra-tough NHRA Pro Stock class, where Enders became the first female to
reach a final round in NHRA Pro Stock history. Enders accomplished this feat
at Chicago's NHRA event in September 2005, and has been recognized by the
NHRA as a nominee for the NHRA Powerade Rookie of the year for the 2005
season.
Weld Motorsports welcomes Enders and the entire Cagnazzi Racing Team aboard
the most recognized wheel in NHRA competition, the Weld Racing Wheel.
