TORRENCE GOES OUT EARLY IN SONOMA

July 29, 2012 -- A somber Steve Torrence left the Raceway at Sonoma Sunday much earlier than he preferred after a first-round Top Fuel loss to Antron Brown in the Sonoma Nationals.

Torrence was a victim of one of drag racing’s detested (by the drivers) occupational hazards – a red-light start.  Brown advanced with a run of 3.782 seconds at 322.88 mph.

“We’ll put this behind us and go on up to Seattle,” said Torrence.

He’ll be back in action Friday when the last of three Western Swing races begins in Seattle.
