BUDDS CREEK , MD – The Northeast Outlaw Pro Mods will start the season at Maryland International Raceway with the EAST COAST DOOR WARZ event with a spectacular Test and Tune session followed by a blowout, killer, no-holds-barred 16-car field mix of Blower, Turbo and Nitrous cars. You won’t want to miss some of the fastest quarter mile Pro Mod cars in the country finely tuning their chariots for the upcoming race battles. This race extravaganza will feature one mixed blend of more than 30 Pro Mod racers trying to qualify. That means you will watch 24 super-fast, kick-butt cars battling for the prize money.
Royce Miller, owner and General Manager of MIR, is quoted saying, “I am really thrilled that the East Coast Door Warz is now an official 1320 Pro Mod Warriors points race. This is going to be an awesome weekend with a 16-car mixed field and an 8-car shootout with shakedown runs on Friday night, qualifying Saturday, and Sunday eliminations. Not only am I looking forward to seeing a great race, but with this cast of characters I can’t wait to hear the smack talking and wild bench racing fish tales.”
The Northeast Pro Mod Warriors will feature some of your favorite and fastest teams like Vinny Budano, Jimmy Barker, 2011 Blower Champion Tim O’Hare and Nitrous Champion Matt Deitsch, Fred Scriba, Steve King, Steve Drummond and a host of others. New comers to the series, like Eric Latino ( from Canada ), Bill Lutz, Harry Pappas and George Williams, are expected to run some high 5:90s /6:00s and provide a real challenge.
Last Year the NEOPMA had more than 12 cars running in the 5-second range and this year the field should be even stronger. MIR is noted as a “Record Breaking Facility” and the cars that will be attending are expected to shatter the track records as they have in the past.
Come fill your need for speed, drink-in the unbelievable horsepower and enjoy the long/ smokey burnouts, huge nitrous purges and supercharged ear-bursting sounds with three fun-filled days of racing! (see the details below) Bring your friends, family, enemies – or anyone else that wants to have fun – to the pits and visit with the drivers and their teams. The Pro Mod Warriors will be challenging each one another during qualifying and finally doing battle on Sunday.
Friday: Pro Mods will have 2 test/shakedown sessions starting at 7PM. Saturday: Pro Mods will have 3 qualifying sessions (12noon, 4pm and 8pm). Sunday: the Pro Mod 16 car field Eliminations begin at 12noon , 2nd round at 2pm , 3rd Round at 3:30pm and finals at 5pm with the 8 car Shootout Eliminations following each of the first three rounds.
