AnySoldier.com contingency among those awarded Dylan Lee at IHRA Jr National in San Antonio

During 2005, IHRA and the Asleep at the Wheel Racing Team of Austin Texas (aatwracing.com) announced an IHRA Junior National event contingency award on behalf of the AnySoldier.com military care package program.

By winning his age group category at the San Antonio Raceway IHRA Jr National event, junior driver Dylan Lee also became the first recipient of the AnySoldier.com contingency award. The presence of that organization’s decal, among the others on his dragster including Winnebago, RJS, Torco, Summit, and Mickey Thompson Tires, ensured contingency awards beyond the prestigious IHRA Ironman. Along with his sponsors, Premier Custom Homes and Northside Collision of San Antonio, Dylan was quick to also thank IHRA and San Antonio Raceway’s Zampese family for continuing to improve the junior program each year.

One of the enhancements at this year’s San Antonio IHRA Junior National event included a "Run for the Dragster" race where 32 of the event’s 120+ competitors raced for a 2005 RPC 330 Bullet dragster provided by San Antonio Raceway and Racer Pops Components (www.racerpops.com). The race was hotly contested and came down to a very close finish with Brittny Blakely of Anthony New Mexico taking home the dragster valued at $7000. Other sponsors of the dragster included Alamo Crosslink Powder Coating, Alamo Plating, Marks Custom Upholstery of San Antonio, and AiM Sports/MyChron3. Dylan Lee of Austin, driving an RPC Dominator dragster, was the runner-up in this race and was awarded a $2000 value full vehicle vinyl graphics wrap package by Skinzwraps.com.
