Montecalvo on Familiar Turf
Fri, 5 Jun 2009, 11:28 AM
Just a few short days after John Montecalvo and wife Lois Anne welcomed their first grandchild,
Vincent
John Montecavlo, into the family, the couple is already looking toward
their next event in a busy, five race back-to-back schedule. The next stop
for Montecalvo and team is Martin, Mich. for the ADRL Ford Summer Drags V.
The two-day race schedule will be jam packed for the team from Long
Island. Friday of the Summer Drags, which would normally only allow for
test-n-tune and one qualifying session, will see the completion of the
ADRL rain out at Memphis. Extreme Pro Stock was down to the semi-final
round before Mother Nature stepped in, postponing the race finale until
this weekend.
"We'll have an awesome opportunity this weekend," says the newly crowned
grandfather. "With Memphis being completed at this event, we have the
chance to win two races in two days. That will be a lot of work but we're
up for the challenge. We have our ADRL motor and combination in and ready
to fight. I've been to Martin many times, which has given us a good bit of
data for that track so I feel good heading into the semi-finals. And now I
have another fan cheering me on - my new grandson! That will give me even
more motivation to win."
Treading on familiar turf and with the enthusiasm of a new family
addition, Montecalvo is locked and loaded for his two-race weekend.
