Well like I promised here is the official thread for you all to use to follow Bruno Massel in the NHRA “Competition Eliminator” class and the Autogeek sponsored Chevy Cobalt.
Bruno started the year off on the right foot by dominating the Pro Import division from start to finish by scoring the win from the pole position. He won with a 4.524 second run at 157.19 at the Palm Beach Shakedown, which was held at the newly renovated Palm Beach International Raceway.

“Fortunately we brought plenty, setting low ET and top speed as we qualified #1 and went on to win the event with our turbocharged 4-cylinder Chevrolet Cobalt. Not only was it great to win our first race of the year, but a great way to welcome aboard Autogeek.net. It was also nice to continue the winning momentum we had from last season, as we stretched our winning streak to four consecutive races and 19 consecutive round wins!” – Bruno Massel
