LAS VEGAS - The Pacific Street Car Association announced today the debut of two Pro Mod classes at this year's Street Car Super Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Nov. 14-17. The new classes feature the Outlaw Pro Mods, or Ultimate Slammers, as well as a more traditional, NHRA-exque Pro Mod class. Purses, class sizes, rules, and sponsorships will be announced soon. The two new classes will replace Pro Street.

"When last year's spectacular record-setting 5.70-second Pro Street ETs kept popping up on the scoreboards," said PSCA President Mel Roth, "it was exciting as a drag racing promoter, but in the same breath, it was a potential death knell to future car counts. Adding weight to certain cars just isn't the answer anymore. We needed another class to even out the playing field."

The traditional Pro Mod class will have a couple small changes from the NHRA package that will allow for Pro Street combos.

In other SCSN news, Daystar "Driven by Design" will continue to fund the traditional Pro Mod "Thursday Night Shootout" that kicks off one of the biggest weekends of the drag racing season. In addition to Daystar, other marketing partners for the 2013 SCSN include Chris Alston's Chassisworks, MagnaFuel, Mickey Thompson Tires, Edelbrock, D Bar D Racing, Yvonne Lucas Racing, Magco Drilling, Goodyear, Accufab, Calvert Racing Products, Pro Line Racing Engines, Resolution Racing Services, Unlimited Products, Network Office Systems, Inc., SCE Gaskets, and Payless Water Heaters and Plumbing.
