I can\u2019t thank our fans enough for showing up for us and supporting what I believe is the best drag racing in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year\u2019s Snowbird Outlaw Nationals was truly record-breaking for FloRacing,\u201d said Mike Levy, FloSports Vice President of Global Rights Acquisition. \u201cWe saw a massive influx of viewers for this event and it was the first time in FloRacing history that the Pro Mod final round, featuring Kye Kelley vs. Ken Quartuccio, achieved our highest number of concurrent viewers. This level of engagement is a testament to how thrilling eighth-mile Pro Mod drag racing can be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the final round shattering concurrency records on FloRacing, Buck echoes the widespread sentiment in the drag racing community that the first race of the Drag illustrated Winter Series represents a turning point in drag racing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven the metrics, I think a case can be made that the Snowbird Outlaw Nationals was the most-watched eighth-mile Pro Mod race of all-time. Now, we turn our attention to the U.S. Street Nationals and do everything we can to continue breaking records \u2013 on and off the track.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After his dramatic final-round performance, <a href=\"https:\/\/dragillustrated.com\/kye-kelley-makes-statement-with-50000-pro-mod-win-at-snowbird-outlaw-nationals\/\" title=\"\">Kye Kelley<\/a> leads the Drag Illustrated Winter Series championship standings heading into the U.S. Street Nationals presented by M&amp;M Transmission, followed by the marquee Drag Illustrated World Series of Pro Mod.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the DI Winter Series, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thewinterseries.com\/\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.thewinterseries.com<\/a>.
