Nestled in the Northwest is one of the best kept secrets in drag racing.

Frank Tamez, of Yakima, Wash., has established himself as the quickest
driver in a naturally-aspirated, automatic transmission doorslammer.
"I think it's absolutely awesome to be driving the fastest car with
doors," said Tamez. "I like dragsters, but there's nothing like the
challenge and thrill of going this fast in a door slammer."
This past Saturday, Tamez clocked a record 6.33-second elapsed time at
221 mph down the quarter-mile during the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing
Series Division 6 event at Pacific Raceways in Kent Wash.
