Pro Stock standout Jason Line reached a personal milestone on Saturday at the SummitRacing.com Nationals in Las Vegas, NV, simultaneously etching his name into the NHRA record books.  On the strength of a 6.748-second, 205.07 mph run in the morning session, the Minnesota native claimed the ninth starting position for Sunday’s final eliminations at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.  This not only marks the 150th start of Line’s Pro Stock career, but is also the first time anyone in the class has qualified for their first 150 races.

Although pleased to have surpassed the mark set by legendary Pro Stock racer Bruce Allen, Line was more concerned about the inconsistent performance of his race car as he looks to score his second win of the season at his sponsor’s race in his team owner’s home town.
 
“It’s pretty cool to be the first guy in Pro Stock to qualify for his first 150 races,” said Line.  “I’d rather be talking about my 150th win, but it’s still a tremendous accomplishment that we can all be proud of.  More than anything, it shows just how good this Summit Racing team is, and shows what we are capable of doing.  Of course, I’d be a lot happier if we were running better.
