Maurice Allen

Although breakages accounted for most of the field, Allen and White managed to show what Pro Stock Motorcycle is all about in a close encounter settled by a holeshot.

Allen’s 7.297 ET from White’s quicker but losing 7.264 was enough to get the job done and give Allen his first ANDRA Drag Racing Series round win in 2014.

“Many people were involved in this event and it’s a shame due to the rate of attrition of breakages that the bracket was diminished, so it was important for all of us to put on a great show,” said Allen.

“We had some technical difficulties in the earlier rounds and if it wasn’t for Nathan Stone stepping up and helping us out today with a new ignition and shift light we would have been nowhere.

“Thanks to my sponsor Milwaukee Tools, my dad (Peter Allen), Stewy, Steve my guys that have been with me all year. It’s been a hard year. Congrats to Luke (Crowley), he’s done an awesome job and taken out the Championship.

“For me the goal this weekend was to win the Gold Tree and we’ve done that for Milwaukee; it’s a great feeling. To win the Nationals is always the holy grail of drag racing.” 

The ANDRA Drag Racing Series now comes to an end for 2014 and will resume once again in January 2015.
