VP Racing Fuels Xtreme Pro Mod Class Announced
Image
The NMCA Competition Team announced the VP Racing Fuels Xtreme Pro Mod class, featuring fast and unique doorslammers. Competing on the eighth-mile drag strip, these machines represent old school and modern muscle cars but with a twist. They are chopped, channeled and scaled down to go along with the nitrous-injected, blown or turbocharged engine combinations.
“The decision to change the Pro Mod class was made after lots of discussion with our valued racers and it fits within our ProPledge commitment to do what’s best for our series,” said Dave Werremeyer, Technical & Communication Director. “We’re all looking forward to the thrilling runs, close racing and intense competition in this class.”
“The Pro Modified class has evolved from the legal realm to the far end of the spectrum with little-to-no-limitations,” said NMCA General Manager Rollie Miller.
Werremeyer continued, “We’re planting ourselves firmly in the middle by allowing the racers to have fun without being handcuffed. The new VP Racing Fuels Xtreme Pro Mod class has its roots in the Pro Mod world but with an outlaw twist to it, similar to several popular 1/8th mile shootouts around the country.”
Payout for VP Racing Fuels Xtreme Pro Mod winners will be $5000 plus contingency. Past NMCA Pro Mod winners have earned well above $7000, with some close to $9000, when payouts and contingency are combined.
NMCA entry fee for car/driver is $175 with no additional tech card fee. A Thursday test session at the season opener in Bradenton will be only $75 and will feature a prepped track. In addition, parking spots at all NMCA events are reserved for VP Racing Fuels Xtreme Pro Mod teams that notify the NMCA event team in advance. Finally, an NMCA official will visit every Xtreme Pro Mod pit space, before each round of qualifying and eliminations, to notify teams of class run time, pairing order and run order.
