Rislone to present Junior All-Star Tour
For the 2007 and 2008 seasons, Drag News Magazine's Junior Drag Racing portion of their All-Star Tour will be expanded with the support of Rislone Products. For eight years, Drag News Magazine has rewarded junior dragster racers with one of the most unique prizes in drag racing, a trip to US Space Camp. Rislone will continue to sponsor not only that prize, but other special programs throughout the season. Jr. All Star events are held at the 16 Drag News All-Star tour races during the year with the pinnacle Drag News Junior Halloween Nationals capping the season. Rislone is a premier manufacturer of engine lubricants and is a division of Bars Products. "Bars Leaks and Rislone have been staunch supporters of junior drag racing for some time and we look forward to working with them for our Junior All-Star races, " said Laurie Silvey of Drag News Magazine.
