Sir Thomas Inc.

Miami Ink to use footage in upcoming TV episode

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla.  - Tommy D'Aprile will roll out his brand new Vanishing Point Race Car at the ADRL's  Camp Motorsports Georgia Drags, May 4-5 at the South Georgia Motorsports Park in Valdosta. The IHRA's 2006 Pro Rookie Driver of the Year is looking forward to racing this weekend and a little extra television time for his sponsors.

While the Sir Thomas Inc. / Access Able Mobility 1963 split-window Corvette will be making its first competitive passes of the year, D'Aprile hopes the car will be competitive once the car is out of the trailer. "We want to get a few runs under our belt. It's the same crew and same tuner that we used to finish fifth in IHRA points last year."

D'Aprile will utilize journeyman racer and tuner Quain Stott to turn the wrenches. "I keep teasing Quain and telling him I'm going to find out just how good of a tuner he really is," D'Aprile joked. "This is an outlaw event, so it's not exactly the same set up we would use at other events. But, I have all the confidence in Quain and my guys to make this car competitive from the start. This is our first outing since October, we just want to go out and have some fun."
