Nineteen -year-old Kippen
drag racer Dan Pepper is "on
top of the world" after he
placed first at in the street
divisions at the Grand Bend
Motorplex and the St.
Thomas Dragway.
For Pepper and his 1983
Chevrolet Camaro Z28, this
season was not without its
challenges.
After a few bad races in
July and August, Pepper
dropped from number one in
points in the Street ET
division at Grand Bend to
number five.
"That's just drag racing.
That's the way it is," said
Pepper. "Either you're on top
of the world or you're not."
"It wasn't from stupidity. I
was trying, but I was just
losing races by two and three
one -thousands of a second. It
just hurt," said Pepper.
It wasn't until a race
weekend in August when
Pepper finally broke his

"In one weekend I went
from fifth to first in points,"
said Pepper.
In Grand Bend, Pepper
placed first five times and
was runner up twice earning
a total of 40 points — seven
points above second place.
Pepper also competed in
September's Division 3
Bracket Finals in Norwalk,
Ohio where he raced against
140 racers.
Although he did not place
at the event, Pepper did make
it to the quarter finals,.
making it further in the event
than any of the other eight
Street ET racers from Grand
Bend.
This summer, Pepper also
broke his own quarter mile
record of 11.99 seconds with
a new record of 11.84
seconds at 113 miles per
hours.
In 2002, Pepper placed
second overall in the Street
ET division and in 2003 he

same division.
