WYNNEWOOD, Okla. – Elite Motorsports is pleased to announce Performance Diesel Inc. (PDI), a prominent manufacturer of engine parts for heavy-duty diesel engines, as a new partner heading into the 2026 Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series season.

“I’ve known Jerad [Wittwer], PDI’s owner, for a while, it was only a matter of time before we got them out here. PDI fits naturally into the heart of this sport,” said Richard Freeman. “With access to our new hospitality, they’ll be right in the middle of the people who run diesel rigs every day, the buyers, the operators, the teams who rely on this equipment to keep their programs moving. That’s the environment where real decisions get made, and it’s exactly where PDI belongs.

“We built PDI on hard work, integrity, and engineering that stands up to real-world demands,” said Jerad Wittwer, owner of PDI. “Elite Motorsports represents that same mindset — preparation, precision, and performance under pressure. We’re proud to stand behind a team that values excellence the way we do.”

The PDI logo will be featured across the Elite Motorsports stable of cars including six-time world champions Erica Enders and Jeg Coughlin Jr. as well as the Top Fuel dragster of Tony Stewart. The NHRA 75th anniversary season begins March 6-8 with the Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville Raceway in Florida.
