GLENDORA, Calif. -- NHRA announced today that Suburban Chevrolet will sponsor the Top Sportsman class in 2011 for the NHRA South Central Division. The Suburban Chevrolet Top Sportsman class will run in conjunction with the division's Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series and make stops in Bell Rose, La., Houston (two stops), Ennis, Texas, Tulsa, Okla., and finish out the season in Noble, Okla.

Racers will earn points toward the South Central division Championship with the top three finishers receiving a share of the $3000 purse. The Champion will also be awarded the Suburban Chevrolet Top Sportsman champion's jacket and a coveted NHRA Wally trophy.

"NHRA Drag Racing is our market," said Keith Haney, co-owner of Suburban Chevrolet and three other dealerships throughout Oklahoma. "We sell cars to a lot of racers including new and used race cars. We've used the partnership as an opportunity to include some of our other companies as well."

Suburban Chevrolet has also had a big presence at Tulsa Raceway Park for more than five years, with involvement in several of the track's racing programs. Haney also competes in the Top Sportsman class where he finished No. 2 in the NHRA South Central division in 2009.
