I love the Pro Modified class of drag racing. The local drag strip where I live has them every so often, but the track is only 1/8 mile. Back in the 60s and 70s, it was a full 1/4 mile until safety had to come into view. The track wasn't long enough for the cars to slow down at the end. As cars got more powerful and faster, they had to shorten it to 1/8 mile. Huntsville Dragway in Harvest, AL.
to me it looks like some shake down passes or license passes ,single lane runs and no crowds or a testing session ? any how some nice looking engineering going on in here cheers
Holy crap dudes, that silver Camaro is out of this world. I hate Camaros so bad but that car is a beautifully engineered marvel.The thing sounds like a spaceship being launched.The orange one is gorgeous also, so is the Firebird.How can you not love a gorgeous car like that lol. Thanks for the awesome video guys, Pro mods are the best racing there is.
Love those pro mods, they remind me of funny cars of years ago; a litte bit of variation with each one. The funny cars of today are identical in they way they are built etc.
These machines are mean, nasty and in your face ( just the way I like it ). The fact that each of these things make anywhere from 2500-4000 horsepower with turbos, nitrous oxide tanks, superchargers or a combination it's truly amazing to me. It may be a bit of a stretch to say that I would be able to race one of those someday but it's nice to have dreams though.
It's official, ….I like pro mod racing even better than top fuel. Not sure why. Maybe because you don't have to have $5,000,000.00 to start a team and build a car. LOVE the silver Z28 @ 1:30, …it's my fav car in the video. I would trim that exhaust up a bit but other than that I thing it's the coolest car I've seen in a long time. very surprised that the all engine pro stocks can run as fast as the pro mods, but they do. I guess the weight difference and the bigger engine CC's make up the difference.
Awesome video! I'm still figuring Pro Mods out, and have a question for anybody who can answer. Prior to the launch on green, I've seen Pro Mods jolt forward for a split second. At first I thought they were just staging, but it's not the typical inching forward into the beams. It looks like a pretty violent jolt sometimes, the wheels spin a bit but not even a full rotation. Also it happens while the engine was being revved up pretty good, but they don't pin the throttle until after they are fully staged, right? I've definitely seen this more than once or twice, and I'm confused.
They are running alcohol/methanol on turbo setups now too though. They finally made turbos that can handle the 3k HP of pro mod is why you are seeing them so much now. Boost LOVES alcohol.
OK, I haven't seen one 1/4 mile pass so far...where are they? And most of these fellas haven't been able to stay on the pedal for an 1/8 mile pass. Some very slick looking race cars...all very big buck builds!
I really wish someone would do a video at the top end....not past the finish when they're slowing down but at the end so you see just how fast they are going...that would be epic...surprised no one has done that so far...every single video is from the pit at launch with them going in the distance...when is someone going to break that mold of this? everyone does it...be different!!
Ya I agree, when I go to the local races I split it between top end and starting area. Plus it's freakin cool to watch what 200-250+ mph looks like in real time. Oh ya.
When you see a car lurching at the start, that car is a turbo car. They keep the revs up to build boost, so when they inch towards the beams it's really violent.
Love Pro Mod. Lots of Camaros. You know what they say about Camaros being like A__ holes. Well these A__ holes go over 200 mph. Wish they showed more Top Sportsman and Pro Mod on tv. IHRA is showing love to these classes. Hope they can help promote it better than NHRA. Nothing like trying to watch ESPN and you have to wait for the end of a women's basketball game. I guess if you want to watch it when you want, YOU TUBE IT!!!
AGREED! -no stupid talking, no stupid music, just racing. and it's my favorite class in drag racing. thanks for the video

Exactly. That's why I subscribed. This is the way I like my racing. Just the racing and none of the crap.
Rolling stones

Better enjoy while you can. This sport is not sustainable. I absolutely love it. Going on for 60 years and 1320 is heaven.
What do you mean when you say not sustainable?
Definitely gonna make my way to Commerce, Ga this year.. Haven't had a car make my ears bleed in a while, lol. Love that track
great coverage Thank you
these are the vids i love, straight to the part where they launch.

How can anyone hate Camaro's????
Kevin Williams the idiot doesn't have an answer
Frankie Taylor racing
Nice video thanx. Been alot of years since I've raced but never have lost the bug.
Dude I like the blue camaro
Yeah, I like to both see and hear what the car is doing on the track versus music tracks and gab. Some real quick land-rockets in this Pro-Mod class.

If I could only win the lottery! Great videos.
That red 5th gen mustang had to be the quickest and fastest one on the planet. 5.97 at 246 holy hell that’s moving.
very decent video and some very nice pro mods

akrause2004 well major sponsers help alot to tho
Oops, sorry I made the comment during tune-up rides...I see the Camero Club is there in force! Nice cars.
soo much video. nice job audio is awesome !!!
Man, now i want to shovel the three feet of snow off my charger and fire up that 440.
Once I saw mech tech I was like oh lord I feel for these people 😂🤦🏻♂️
sadly this vid was before they built the 2jz camry. the one in the vid is still a fast car tho
Awesome nothing like real muscle

+Mr4NGRY Thats a Turbo car doing that because they need to keep the boost up before they stage.... no boost no power to launch hard.
Great Stuff, from Brazil...
Finally the full god damn 1/4.
Title makes it seem like it's a cross country race.
Nice watching the bigdogs going to war on the concrete jungle, they just keep getn faster every year!!!
Awesome video!!
1/4 mile....all day every day....HELL YEAH!!!!
Wow,,,Last race was amazing..5.96 for both lanes..GREAT!
Cool video. Great cars. MIR is one of my favorite tracks. Royce Miller is an excellent manager, and a nice guy.
Maryland Intnl. Raceway. Buds Creek, MD.
wicked vid
I wish i lived there!!!!! hell ya!!!
supercharger showdown rules!!1!
P.S. I'm in love with that white monte carlo
Great cars going to get one
Thanks!
the only 3 camaros i like are the green and purple and the red one, and the red firebird just crazy
twin turbo seems to be the new trend. supercharged on alcohol is still the most bad ass mainly b/c the supercharger sticks so far up out of the hood.
Turbos big enough to suck up a small child are cool too though. ;)
They are running alcohol/methanol on turbo setups now too though. They finally made turbos that can handle the 3k HP of pro mod is why you are seeing them so much now. Boost LOVES alcohol.
Love the video, Hate the camera work!
i love 2 see 1/4 promods
OK, I haven't seen one 1/4 mile pass so far...where are they? And most of these fellas haven't been able to stay on the pedal for an 1/8 mile pass. Some very slick looking race cars...all very big buck builds!
That second car went 6.70 @ 140 on the brakes at the eighth. Sheesh
8:04 damn the car sounds aggressive as hell
nice competition
Supercharger showdown when 2/3 are turbo and handful of blower and n2o cars. Should be named "try to beat the snail"
Is that black and red 63 vette okay? ):
8:07 yea I think sumone jumped and I ain't talking about the driver lol
Could have almost called this the Camaro supercharger showdown.....
Thank God some have come to their senses and realized that 1/4 mile = 1320 ft, not 1000 ft.
Good video, the only thing that bothers me is the night time view of the displays, need to use manual focus as they are always blurry. Thanks.
This is the shit, right here, Don't need no rails, don't need no funny cars or pro stock, neither.
I really wish someone would do a video at the top end....not past the finish when they're slowing down but at the end so you see just how fast they are going...that would be epic...surprised no one has done that so far...every single video is from the pit at launch with them going in the distance...when is someone going to break that mold of this? everyone does it...be different!!
Ya I agree, when I go to the local races I split it between top end and starting area. Plus it's freakin cool to watch what 200-250+ mph looks like in real time. Oh ya.
the quickest streetcars are also in the 6 second 1/4 mile et's
Where are those vids at on UA-cam?
slowpoke96z28 Drag week. A new record was set a few weeks ago with Larry Larson's S-10 pickup going 6.16 at 220 or something
+MrSamsamsammy He's been in the 5's more recently.
Yeah it's insane what those "cars" can run
How are they street cars and
Best 1 hour you'll ever spend. Real racers run 1320.
How about those 300mph jet cars???!!!!! Don't see that at the NHRA sh!t show.
@7:22 awesome sound.
any wrecks in this video?
There catching up to top fuel times.
1:42 I've always wanted to sit in one of those just to see how the fuck they can see where their going in that fucking thing
Ah real cars
Supercharger show down yet half the cars don’t have super chargers..... makesalotta sense
those chevy's & fords need all the help they can get to keep up with the Mighty HEMI.
It's a pro mod so it's carbon fiber but yes it is a Camaro
When you see a car lurching at the start, that car is a turbo car. They keep the revs up to build boost, so when they inch towards the beams it's really violent.
Bump Box
Ya FULL 1/4 MILE the way it's supposed to be.
twin turbo vs supercharged
Bi21 Brava motor 6cilnd 2jz 260 mph 5.65 ok..P.R Boricua..,..

Not to many of these cars actually do a full run
lol @ a nitrous car getting quickest pass of first round, supercharger/turbo guys need to step it up, note quick as in E.T. not fast as in speed :)
its fiberglass
The idiot at 6:18 pushin it after he had already broke loose was askin for BIG TROUBLE...
37:52 for the win.
My bad bro! I got my colors mixed up. Same damn flag just a different color.
Carbon fiber
8 commercials in an hour? goodbye
What are commercials? Lol I suggest using Adblock with Chrome or Firefox. Haven't seen an advertisement on YT in years.....
HULK ENGINES
11:35 racetime
Jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjiuyuu9o I yyyuuaaerfjdjddjejjejejejrjrjrjjjjju

No son, that's a CAMARO

1/4 mile is where real men race!!!!!
*** puerto rican flag***
thats a puerta rican flag ...... duh...
lol they took off the racist flags :D 5:10
Camaros' are like............
One of the most beautiful things on this earth
these cars are getting way to long they need to be stock wheel base and look to much like funny cars but not to funny .
This is garbage. Why edit in EVERY car that burbs the tires, and coasts out like a drunken cheerleader the morning after?!
C xxnx
