"Lucas Oil
Products is proud to be partnering with PDRA. Lucas Oil
takes pride in making problem solving additives as well as
racing motor oils. I am looking forward to 2016. Top
Dragster is an exciting class, and Lucas Oil manufactures
racing oils that are well suited to the high demands these
race engines, transmissions, and rear differentials
require. We are looking forward to seeing many racers in
PDRA's winner circle this year using Lucas Oil." - Tom
Bogner, Lucas Oil Products - Director of Motorsports
Outlaw 10.5 will be contested at three events this season
thanks to sponsor DiSomma Racing Engines.
NAPA Auto Parts has also joined the PDRA as a promotional
partner for select events.
A major hit with fans, the Quarter-Max Top End and
Starting Line Zones will return again in 2016 on the PDRA
Live Feed by MotorManiaTV.com.
The PDRA has also partnered with a growing number of
companies to highlight the industry’s top products.

Racing Fuel, Hoosier Racing Tire as the Official Racing

“The support of these tremendous companies continues to
raise the professionalism of this series and helps us in
our goal of giving the best value to our racers,” stated
PDRA Race Director Bob Harris. “We are very proud to have
them on board as we enter our third season. It is a great
honor to build a lasting legacy in the PDRA with these
