David Hance ran his first ever 5 second pass at his Shakedown at E'town event on Sunday, October 9. In the second round, Dave beat # 2 qualifier Pete Farber and ran a 5.92 at 251 mph. He made it to the semis where mechanical issues sidelined him. "This is the best we have run at Shakedown in a long time and I am just proud to do it here in front of my family, friends and this crowd," Hance said.

At Maryland International Raceway the Northeast Outlaw Pro Mod Association hosted the 1320 Pro Mod Warrior Series Supercharger Showdown on October 21 & 22. While competing in the Turbo/Blown class, Hance reset the track speed record to 249 while running 5.95 and 5.96.

The best was yet to come for David, who while testing at MIR for the NEOPMA Rumble in the Park at Virginia Motorsports Park on Friday, ran consistent 5 second runs including his personal best 5.79 at 254 mph. The first two passes right out of the trailer were 5.93 at 249 mph and 5.88 at 253 mph. Unfortunately, the test session rained out before David was able to make another pass. "I am so excited to have these runs, my team has worked so hard this year, and to be able to run these times is just incredible," said Hance.
