As part of this multi-year agreement, E3 Spark Plugs is designated as the “Official Ignition Products of NHRA.”

“E3 has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with the NHRA and with the recent successes of the past two seasons, drag racing is enjoying a renaissance so it made perfect sense to take this opportunity to extend our status as the Official Ignition Products of the NHRA,” said Rob Fisher, E3’s vice president of motorsports. “This extension coupled with our new position as the title sponsor of the Pro Mod division series demonstrates our commitment to NHRA, its racers and its fans.”
