TONGLET GRABS THIRD PSM VICTORY AND TEAM FOURTH FOR STORM-BOUND BOSS IN LOUISIANA

Jerry Savoie, the most recent Pro Stock Motorcycle winner before this weekend’s Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals, knew he wouldn’t make the trip to Norwalk, Ohio. The two-bike team owner opted to stay home at Cutoff, La., to protect his alligator farm business and property in the wake of Tropical Storm Cindy and leave the racing to partner L.E. Tonglet.

But Savoie told crew chief Tim Kulungian, “Put our best stuff in L.E.'s bike and go out there and kick everyone's ass. We've got a good thing going right now, and I want it to continue."

That year, both Smiths went on to make even more history as the first father-son duo to claim series crown in their respective classes in the same year.
