HAMPTON, GA – Almost 300 competitors returned to the pit lane drag strip and thrilled patrons in Week 11 of O’Reilly Auto Parts Friday Night Drags at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Behind the wheel of his 1997 Chevrolet S10, Kinard knocked off Vic Vickers of McDonough and his 1993 Ford Mustang for his fifth consecutive win, the most of any drags competitor this year.
