BILLY GLIDDEN AND HARRY HRUSKA PART WAYS

In what is being described as a cordial, mutual split, Billy Glidden has confirmed that he will no longer serve as driver of Harry Hruska’s Precision Turbo & Engine NHRA Pro Mod Camaro – a much-talked-about partnership that was announced in late May.

“We’re just going our separate ways,” said Glidden, checking in from his shop at his home in Whiteland, Indiana. “Nothing exciting to report. It was a mutual thing; we just decided to go our separate ways.”

Glidden, who amassed an impressive 12-2 win/loss record behind the wheel of Hruska’s twin-turbocharged Camaro, took the win at the NHRA Summit Racing Equipment Nationals in Norwalk and established new career-bests in elapsed time (5.838-seconds) and speed (257.68), admits that the driver-tuner team certainly showed promise.

“Yes, sir,” said Glidden, when asked about his impressive win-loss record during his short stint in the Precision Turbo & Engine ride. “We made a lot of progress and I think we really had a lot going for us. It just didn’t work out. Now, I believe we’ll just roll out our tried-and-true Mickey Thompson Ford Mustang and go race.”
