This year during the Gatornationals Jerry Gwynn was inducted into the International Drag Racing Hall of Fame.  Joining him at the reception was our long-time friend and racer Ken Veney.   photo 2.1

After Darrell Gwynn’s accident in 1990 I was asked to race his car and we won the Springnationals on our very first outing!  “A Win for Gwynn” was the cover from National Dragster following that race with Jerry Gwynn on the right, Ken Veney in the middle and me on the left.

So 25 years later I couldn’t resist another photo of the three of us together at the banquet!

Ken continued on building race car parts and engines, Jerry continues to works with his son Darrell’s Foundation and I continue to teach new racers at our drag racing school.

We’re missing the hats, team shirts and a driving suit, but here we are…then and now!

Bobby Bennett from Competition Plus,  has put together a series of great interviews and I was very pleased to have been included in this group.    Hope you enjoy the video!

“It was the best time we’ve ever had!”

“Thank you Frank for allowing our life-long dream to come true!”

“Words alone cannot convey the depth of my appreciation for the chance to experience what I did today…”

“We had a fantastic time and it definitely was a moral boost to our team and money well spent.”

photo 11-cropThe months of January and February have kept us busy helping people obtain their goal of earning their NHRA Super Comp, Super Gas and Nostalgia Funny Car licenses!

It is always interesting to note the wide range of experience of the people attending the School…some were grads upgrading their licenses, some had been racing 10 and 11 second cars, some were moving up from Jr. Dragster, and some hadphoto 2-crop never been in a race car before!

We are pleased that Sunoco Race Fuels will power all the School’s race cars in 2015!  The Chevy engines in the school’s Super Comp and Super Gas cars will be burning Sunoco 110, while the Alcohol cars will be powered by Sunoco Methanol and Southern Racing Fuels will be making sure plenty of product is on hand for every driving course.  Thank you to Sunoco Race Fuels and Southern Racing Fuels for your support!

12888340414_23bd9b30f7_o.cropFrank Hawley’s Drag Racing School will start its 2014 West Coast season at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Chandler, AZ.  The world’s premiere Drag School will be conducting Super Comp and Super Gas Competition licensing classes on March 2-3, 2015 and the increasingly popular Dragster Adventure on March 4, 2015.

“We are excited to be heading to Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Phoenix this winter.  The weather in Phoenix around that time of year is spectacular.  We will be running our classes following the NHRA Divisional race, so race fans from around the country can have a total motorsports experience.  They can watch the races and then do some driving themselves,” said Hawley, owner and chief instructor of the school.

Hawley points out that the competition course which can provide drivers with an NHRA 4A or 4B competition license is not just for those who want to go racing.  “In every class we have ever held we have had experience levels that ranged from veterans to folks that have never staged a car,” said Hawley.  “Over the years we have worked very hard to develop a curriculum that never talked over someone’s head.  I have always believed it is essential that we offered classes where everyone felt comfortable no matter their age or gender and that we provided an atmosphere where each person could enjoy themselves,” added Hawley.  Racers can also choose to attend one of Hawley’s lectures on ‘Personal Performance Development’ which is offered as part of the Competition classes.  Many of today’s top professional and sportsman racers have attended and greatly benefitted from Hawley’s teachings.

Here’s a few quotes from some of last year’s Phoenix grads:

“Best experience I’ve ever given myself! I would be forever blessed if I only retained even a quarter of what I heard & learned… Thank you!”  Windy

“I just want to drop you a short note to thank you all and most of all Frank for giving me opportunity to get my License. I learned a lot in class and a lot of it I have applied to my business (American Walk in Coolers) the idea of staying calm and not to over react to things that happen which are out of our control was great, there was a ton of other things I leaned and I thank you Frank, It was all good stuff.”  Gene

“ I wanted to thank everyone at the school for their help and a special thanks to Frank . I ran my first race this past weekend and ended up going to the finals with over 30 cars in the field and finished runner up running a super pro class with a local drag club.”  David

Challenge - 06.1This has been a great year! We’ve covered the country from California to Washington to Pennsylvania with lots of places in between.

Our first full season with our Dragster Adventure thrilled drivers and produced some fabulous side-by-side racing and our school is still the only place student drivers can race dragsters in “side-by-side” competition.

Take a look at the video of the John Force Corporate Adventure day. You’ll see John with his daughters Courtney and Brittney and his team driver Robert Hight enjoying a day with their sponsors at our school.

Our school is the perfect place for you, your friends, customers or employees to join in the activities during the Adventure programphoto 3s.  We can plan a private session just for your group!

The fall weather is spectacular here in Florida. We’re enjoying 70 degrees and sunshine while many people are stuck in the “polar vortex”. So treat yourself to a trip to Florida. We have a full schedule of classes in everything from Super Comp and Super Gas to our 200 mph Alcohol machines.

Many dates and locations have been finalized for 2015, so if you can’t make it to Florida this winter (although you should really try!), take a look at our other locations and decide what other race track will work for you or your group. https://frankhawley.com/class-dates-locations/

photo 5.12015 will mark our third decade of providing excitement, thrills, education and fulfillment of many drivers’ dreams. We would love to help make it a memorable year for you behind the wheel!

We look forward to hearing from you!
