Chris Hill, long-time member of NHRA's certification and technical inspection team, has been
named manager of NHRA national event planning.
Hill, who served the last two seasons as an assistant event coordinator on the NHRA POWERade
Drag Racing Series, will take over the position, effective immediately, and in time for the 36th
running of the Mac Tools NHRA Gatornationals, March 17-20, in Gainesville, Fla. He will report
directly to Glen Cromwell, vice president, national event marketing.
"Chris has extensive experience on the NHRA POWERade Drag Racing Series tour having served in a
variety of capacities since 1988," said Cromwell. "His position as assistant event coordinator
the last two seasons will make for a smooth transition for our racers and sponsors beginning
with the Mac Tools NHRA Gatornationals."
Hill, who has a strong background in event planning, served 14 years on NHRA's
certification and technical inspection team, before becoming assistant national event
coordinator prior to the 2003 NHRA POWERade Drag Racing season.
