One person's response after attending his school:
I just wanted to relay my appreciation to you, Doug and all the crew on giving me the experience of my life. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it, as well as my daughter, who only watched and videotaped it. I thought it was well organized and done in a timely manner. To top it off, we got to see some other cars run, which put down some awesome runs. The crew was extremely knowledgeable and friendly to all. Wally was correct when he said he couldn't explain how it feels to run one of these cars, I can attest to that, you have to experience it for yourself to know and now I know when I try to tell others about it. I don't think I will soon forget. I know one thing, it makes your personal car feel quite tame, no matter what you drive. I have a friend or two who are considering doing the experience and I am recommending your school. Keep up the good work, I know you enjoy doing it. Adam Novicki
Doug Foley
Doug Foley, a 13-year veteran of Drag Racing and owner of Doug Foley’s Drag Racing School, started competing in the sportsmen classes where he finished third in Super Comp in 1994. In 1996 he moved up to Top Alcohol Dragster ranks with his first win in only his second season with many final rounds to follow.
In 2002 Doug Foley along with good friend and long-time racer Tim Lewis, formed Foley/Lewis Racing. They continued to compete in Alcohol Dragster through the 2003 season where they finished 9th in the NHRA National Points Standings and second in Division 1, picking up 2 wins on their way.
While attending his first IHRA National Event in Rockingham, NC in the fall of 2003 he and partner Tim Lewis decided to try their hand at Top Fuel Racing. He licensed in Bradenton, FL with the help of Bruce Litton and crew. His first event in competition was in San Antonio, TX and they continued to run the entire IHRA tour, picking up wins at Cayuga, Canada; Budds Creek, MD, and Norwalk, OH, making him the winningest Top Fuel Rookie Driver in the IHRA's history. He finished the season in 3rd place and his plans are to continue in IHRA Top Fuel for the 2005 season with the possibility of making some NHRA stops along the way.
