Billy Torrence Back at Brainerd

 BILLY TORRENCE DOING DOUBLE DUTY

 CAPCO Contractors Founder Pursues Top Fuel, Super Comp Titles at Brainerd

BRAINERD, Minn. – As the founder and CEO of CAPCO Contractors, a family-owned company that once again this year will invest more than a million man-hours in the construction and maintenance of international oil-and-gas pipelines, Billy Torrence tries to maximize rare weekends like this one in which he’ll be back behind the wheel of a race car for the first time in nine months. 

So, instead of pursuing just one championship in the 43rd Lucas Oil Nationals at Brainerd International Raceway, the 67-year-old Texan will chase two.

 Although the bulk of the attention will be focused on his turn at the wheel of the CAPCO-backed Top Fuel Toyota usually driven by his son, Steve, he also will drive a somewhat less powerful CAPCO dragster in pursuit of his third national event victory in Super Comp.

 At this week’s Lucas Oil Nationals at Brainerd, Minn., Billy Torrence will be in the seat of the CAPCO Contractors Top Fuel Toyota in which his son, Steve, was victorious earlier this season at Bristol, Tenn.
