Muravez Back In Western Hoist Nostalgia Top Fuel Dragster

Burbank, CA (05-30-03) After a short break to work on other business projects, Bob Muravez, AKA Floyd Lippencotte, Jr., announced today that he would be returning to the driver's seat in the Western Hoist Nostalgia Top Fuel dragster, owned by Jon and Jeannie Halstead.

Also returning to the Western Hoist camp is Crew Chief, Chris Nance, and the other crew members of the Lippencotte Racing team, all anxious to step up performance and be "a five second player" on the highly competitive Nostalgia Top Fuel circuit.

Muravez's first race back behind the wheel will be at the GoodGuys-VRA "West Coast Hot Rod Happening" June 27-29, 2003, in Pomona, CA, where Saturday night qualifications will give hard-core nitro fans a spectacular show.
