2019 NHRA Pro Stock Schedule

GLENDORA, CA – November 10, 2018 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – NHRA announced today that in 2019, the Pro Stock category will compete in 18 events in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series, which competitors believe is the “sweet spot” for the category.

“We think the new schedule will increase participation by relieving the economic burden and time commitment that comes with 24 events, which will ignite more intense competition. All of that should make for compelling action and drive fan interest,” said Josh Peterson, NHRA vice president of racing administration.

The NHRA Pro Stock class will compete at the following events:
