Springfield shop owner leads NHRA Funny Car points (June 2008)
Springfield, Ill.--Tim Wilkerson, owner and driver of the Levi, Ray, & Shoup Chevrolet Impala SS, is undeniably the best Funny 
Car on the NHRA POWERade Drag Racing circuit right now.
Wilkerson and his team's formidable outing in St. Louis, considered his home track and just 90 miles from his automotive repair shop, Wilkerson's Monroe Shell, made the Springfield, native the local favorite.
Wilkerson started the weekend at the O'Reilly Midwest Nationals in St. Louis by powering his nitro-burning Impala SS to a No. 1 qualifying position, his fourth of the young season.
The pole had extra significance for Wilkerson as Gateway International Raceway is the closest to the corporate headquarters of his sponsors, LRS. Gateway was filled with Wilkerson friends, family, sponsor Dick Levi, and Shoup's employees and friends.
