Pro
Extreme, Pro Nitrous and Pro Boost Will Pay $10,000 to Win
in 2018
PITTSBORO, N.C. (December 13, 2017): At the PRI Show this
past week, the Professional Drag Racers Association
announced that the payout in their top three classes will
increase in 2018. PDRA Pro Extreme, Switzer Dynamics Pro
Nitrous presented by MoTeC and Andy McCoy Race Cars Pro
Boost will now all pay $10,000 to win. That’s an increase
of $3,000 for Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous and $4,000 for
Pro Boost.
“We’re entering into year five,” stated Bob Harris of the
PDRA. “We have put down strong roots and we recognize that
the cost of racing will always continue to rise. We felt
the timing was right to increase the payout for these
classes. This organization has always been ‘by racers, for
racers’ and one of our main goals is to give back to the
racers as much as possible. We hope our racers will
continue to see our commitment to them through moves like
this. Our series consists of an elite group of racers and
we want to treat them as such.”
The PDRA just recognized its 2018 World Champions at the
PDRA Awards Banquet Saturday evening. Recording artist, PJ
North, performed at the banquet, which was a celebration
enjoyed by all in attendance.
After a short off season, the series will begin season
five with the East Coast Spring Nationals at GALOT
Motorsports Park, April 5-7, 2018. The full 2018 schedule
can be found by visiting PDRA online at www.pdra660.com.
