The Detail Concrete Punisher nitro funny car made three solid passes during its
first race this past weekend at the 2nd annual Good Guys Nostalgia Nationals at Beech Bend Raceway
in Bowling Green, KY.
After qualifying was canceled Friday due to the weather, the Punisher came back with a successful
6.39 second pass at 220 MPH to take the number four qualifying spot on Saturday. "With all the
changes we've made to the car the past several weeks, it was great to get that pass out of the way
and make it into the show", said Anthony Bronge, driver and co-owner of the McKinney Corp. built
'69 Camaro.

Sunday's eliminations brought the first clear skies of the weekend and the Detail Concrete Punisher
made it to the semis with a 6.32 pass at 231 MPH. Then, in the semis, the car slowed to a 6.40 at
231 MPH in losing to eventual runner up Steve Nichols.
"All in all, we couldn't be happier with the results of the team this weekend. We've come a long
way from the beginning of the year when we decided to park our extremely successful altered program
and move to nostalgia funny car. That's it for us for this season, but we'll be ready for the March
Meet in Bakersfield next year", said Ernst Kosower, co-owner of the Detail Concrete Punisher.
In order to make the cross-country haul and to promote other efforts, the team continues to search
for sponsors and other co-operative marketing partners for 2010 and beyond. Details of that effort
can be found on our website at www.brongeracing.com.
