PDRA is
Bringing Back Long Burnouts
PITTSBORO, N.C. (April 25, 2018): Racing is certainly
about competition, but no one denies the fact that it’s
also built on entertainment. The PDRA believes strongly in
the entertainment value it offers. This year the
organization debuted a unique competition within each race
for Pro Stock and Top Sportsman. During the last round of
qualifying run on Friday night, Pro Stock and Top
Sportsman show off their long, smokey burnouts through a
burnout competition.
Race Hard Apparel is sponsoring the Pro Stock Burnout
Competition. Classic Graphix has stepped up to sponsor the
Top Sportsman Burnout Competition. The winner of each
class receives $300 and a trophy. At the season opener at
GALOT Motorsports Park Jeff Dobbins won the Pro Stock
Burnout Competition.
The PA announcers judge the winners, but the fans have the
hardest job. They help determine the winners by their
reaction to each burnout. If fans are happy to see long
burnouts return, they can show appreciation by cheering on
their favorites at each event.
“We’re very excited for this new competition,” began PDRA
Marketing Director Will Smith. “We are grateful to Don and
Callie at Race Hard Apparel and Scott and the crew at
Classic Graphix for supporting the racers in the effort to
bring back long burnouts. We had a lot of fun with it at
GALOT and I know it’s going to be a favorite part of the
program all year long.”
All racers who make the last qualifying pass on Friday
evening are automatically entered into the competition.
Winners are announced at the conclusion of that round.
Support the companies that support racers by choosing
Race Hard Apparel and
Classic Graphix.
