 Coughlin makes quick adjustment to new NHRA rules for Pro Stock
(3-10-2010) GAINESVILLE, FL – Jeg Coughlin Jr. has mastered the ever-changing world of NHRA Pro Stock racing four different times, winning world championships in 2000, 2002, 2007, and 2008 in his JEGS.com Chevrolet Cobalt. Armed with that experience, he took the NHRA's three new rule modifications in stride, even though teams only had two weeks to figure out the balance of their hot rods before this weekend's 41st annual Tire Kingdom NHRA Gatornationals.
"After everything that happened in Phoenix the NHRA mandated some pretty significant changes," Coughlin said. "They increased the size of the rear wickerbill, added an air dam up front, and had us move more weight to the rear of the car. We had to go test and figure o... [Read More]

The annual Pro Mod season-opener has been the talk of the racing world for weeks as 28 of the world’s top teams are entered into the category’s first event as a professional NHRA eliminator.
“Of course, we are all very excited to get back on the racetrack,” says Rowe, who will continue to represent Sterling... [Read More]

 Commisso enters Pro Mod season with target on his back
(3-9-2010) GAINESVILLE, FL – Canadian racer Raymond Commisso is a veteran of Pro Mod competition, and as he enters this weekend's 41st annual Tire Kingdom NHRA Gatornationals as part of the inaugural class of the NHRA Get Screened America Pro Mod Drag Racing Series he will carry the mantle of a class favorite.
Since joining R2B2 Racing full-time, Commisso has gone from a freewheeling and mostly underfunded independent to a well-supported professional driver and his performances on the racetrack have taken a noticeable upturn. He currently holds the national elapsed time record of 5.881 seconds and has recorded the quickest run in history at 5.817 seconds. People are starting to take notice.

 Johnson eyes twin wins at NHRA Gatornationals
(3-9-2010) GAINESVILLE, FL – Allen Johnson will get a rare opportunity at the 41st Annual Tire Kingdom NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville (Fla.) Raceway this weekend-the chance to claim two wins at one NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event. The Team Mopar Pro Stock driver is a threat to win both the postponed elimination rounds of the NHRA Arizona Nationals, which will be contested during qualifying at Gainesville on March 12-13, and the Gatornationals crown on Sunday, March 14.
Johnson has experience in the race-within-a-race format. He won the 2008 K&N Horsepower Challenge during the qualifying rounds of the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals. The Pro Stock Mopar Dodge Avenger driver hopes to put his prior experien... [Read More]

 Anderson works to reap double rewards in Gainesville
(3-9-2010) GAINESVILLE, FL – Throughout his career, Summit Racing NHRA driver Greg Anderson has strived to make the most of any opportunity presented, using a combination of a tireless work ethic, practical knowledge and sheer determination. It is a philosophy that has served him well, as evidenced by his three Full Throttle Pro Stock championships and 60 national event wins.
Therefore, it is safe to assume that Anderson will be more than up to the unique challenge presented during this weekend's Tire Kingdom Gatornationals in Gainesville, FL. Following the postponement of the final three rounds at the last event in Arizona, the remaining eight Pro Stock competitors will complete the previous race during qualifying on Frida... [Read More]

 A Pro Mod dream becomes a reality this weekend
(3-9-2010) GAINESVILLE, FL – After a decade of existence as an exhibition class, the Pro Mod cars are now a fully sanctioned NHRA class, and team owner/driver Roger Burgess couldn't be happier.
"A lot of people contributed a lot of time and effort to make this happen," Burgess said. "By becoming an official class it legitimizes everything we've been doing. Racing for Wally (trophies) is going to be very exciting. Everyone wants one of those little gold men. They are the NHRA's iconic symbol of success.
"Being on ESPN2 also will help tremendously, especially with bringing corporate sponsors to the table for all of our competitors. This is big year for us."
Since the announcement of the NHRA Get Scre... [Read More]

 First race, first win, new sponsor start the season off right for Taylor Racing
(3-9-2010) DICKINSON, TX – We had a very busy weekend of racing but there were no complaints from Taylor Racing.
A test session at Baytown on Friday resulted in our first full pass of 3.80 and yes, with a converter. We then packed up and headed directly to the Haning camp. Next we were off to Crandall for the first Texas Outlaw Pro Modified Association race of the year.
Dallas Raceway was nice to us on Saturday but I like to think Frankie and Paul had something to do with the results.
In the first round of qualifying we ran 3.796 196.04, good enough for the #2 spot. After electing to sit out the second session we went into the first round of eliminations and rang up a 3.8... [Read More]

 Brennan betters the record
(3-9-2010) ILUKA, WA – Iluka based Maurice Brennan has blitzed the national AA/AP record again, shaving another twelve hundredths of a second off his previous best, and claiming the new speed record in the process, at Perth’s Westernationals.
The Crown Integrated/Joondalup Carpet Court VT Commodore was in form right from the start of the event, slamming down a 6.26 in tough conditions, serving notice that the team was onto something special.
Head tuner, James Rowland was ecstatic with the achievement, rating the record as the highlight of his tuning career thus far.
“To have the car run straight with consistent 6.15, 6.18, and another 6.18 is a massive pat on the back to the team who’ve worked so hard for this. The car ... [Read More]
