Former UNC LB Jeff Longhany making name for himself in NHRA

Posted Mar 11, 2015
You couldn't ask for a much hotter start to a racing season than Jeff Longhany has enjoyed. In three NHRA Southeast Division meets, the Stock racer (and four-year UNC football letterman) has a win and two runners-up. To put it another way, in head-to-head competition this season, Longhany's record is 16-2. And, oh, by the way, he's leading the national points on the strength of that kind of success.
