The final day of the PRO Superstar Shootout was the biggest yet as thousands of people poured into Bradenton Motorsports Park (right next door to the Freedom Factory) for eliminations.
Once again, you’ll see what I see as I take photos for Drag Illustrated. I mounted my iPhone 15 on top of my Sony A7III stills camera. I’ve even added results graphics for you guys this time!
Top Fuel saw the final come down to Doug Kalitta and Clay Millican (that’s the dragster sponsored by Cleetus McFarland, and he even had Jeff Lutz from Street Outlaws as a guest) while Funny Car was between Austin Prock and Matt Hagan. Who won? Well you’ll have to see the video. We also included the Pro Stock final, the celebrations are wild!
Thanks to all the racers: John Force Racing with Austin Prock and Brittany Force, Tony Stewart Racing with Leah Pruett and Matt Hagan, Tony Schumacher, Kalitta Motorsports with Shawn Langdon, JR Todd and Doug Kalitta, SCAG Racing with Daniel Wilkerson and Justin Ashley, Dave Richards, Chad Green, Blake Alexander for Jim Head, Alexis Dejoria, Ron Capps, Antron Brown, Steve and Billy Torrence, Clay Millican, Bob Tasca, Paul Lee and I’m sure we’ve missed someone.
This was the biggest nitro drag racing event outside of the NHRA in a long, long time. We hope to see it become a regular event on the calendar.
