Fisher Body Shop team member Brian Selner beat Darell Carmichael in Sunday’s Pro ET race.

Ron Arnold

Kentucky racer Ron Arnold made it to the Tsukigi Racing Streetfighter winner’s circle through hell and high water. Only a week after gall bladder surgery, Arnold was still extremely tender. He was racing Danny Miller in an early round when Miller grabbed a handful of front brake at an inopportune time, washing his front tire out and sending him and the bike into high-speed slides. Arnold was looking over his shoulder at the crash when he noticed Miller’s bike was spinning right towards him and gaining fast.

“I realized it was gonna hit me if I didn’t get outta there!” Arnold twisted the throttle of his Fun For All Motorsports Suzuki GSXR and sped away from the carnage. He later beat veteran racer and engine builder Dave Page in the final.
