In a move that has the drag racing world buzzing, six-time NHRA Pro Stock world champion Erica Enders has announced her return to the Pro Modified (Pro Mod) class as part of the Drag Illustrated Winter Series presented by J&A Service. The announcement came during the latest episode<\/a> of Shake & Bake<\/em>, in conjunction with Drag Illustrated\u2019s social media, where Enders shared her excitement about the upcoming challenge.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going Pro Mod racing again. It should be fun,\u201d shared Enders as she explained that the opportunity came together just a few days prior, and she was recently fitted in the car at Modern Racing.<\/p>\n

Enders\u2019 passion for drag racing remains as fierce as ever, even after facing the ups and downs of a storied career. Reflecting on her last stint in Pro Mod, Enders recounted the fiery incident<\/a> at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio, in 2019, where her Chevrolet Camaro caught fire at the end of a qualifying run.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last time I was in a Pro Mod was the nasty fire in Norwalk,\u201d Enders said. \u201cI had to call Sparco and get a new 20 fire suit because my other one got singed a little.\u201d<\/p>\n

This time, she\u2019ll be piloting a ProCharger-powered car in a partnership with Elite Motorsports and Scott Tidwell Racing \u2013 marking a new chapter in her Pro Mod journey.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never driven a ProCharger car, so I\u2019m excited about that new experience,\u201d she shared. \u201cI love race cars, and it\u2019s a door car.\u201d<\/p>\n

After closing out her NHRA Pro Stock season, Enders admitted that her passion for racing needed a spark. The opportunity to compete in the Drag Illustrated Winter Series provided just that.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t really even want to go to Pomona or the banquet,\u201d Enders said candidly. \u201cI was like, \u2018I\u2019m over drag racing.\u2019 Then this came about the other day, and I thought, you know what? We\u2019ll set Pro Stock aside and revisit that come February or March. This will be a new challenge; it\u2019ll be something fun and a more relaxed environment for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enders also praised Drag Illustrated\u2019s founder and Winter Series Promoter Wes Buck for the exciting atmosphere his events create, likening the series to past high-profile races like the PRO Superstar Shootout, the World Doorslammer Nationals and the original World Series of Pro Mod in Denver.<\/p>\n

\u201cWes\u2019s races are always a good time,\u201d she said. \u201cThis reminds me of those events, and I\u2019m excited about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Drag Illustrated Winter Series boasts an elite roster of competitors, and Enders is ready to test her championship experience against the best.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been reading all the news feeds with the announcements of who\u2019s driving\u2014it\u2019s like a huge collection of badasses,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be really tough, even to qualify, and I\u2019m excited about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Drag Illustrated Winter Series is set to deliver thrilling action with three marquee events: the historic Snowbird Outlaw Nationals December 5-8, 2024, the intense U.S. Street Nationals January 23-26, 2025, and the highly anticipated World Series of Pro Mod February 27-March 1, 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Each race promises intense competition and the kind of electric atmosphere that has become synonymous with Drag Illustrated\u2019s marquee events.<\/p>\n
