Ida Zetterstrom Driver of the Dialight Top Fuel Dragster Headed to the Motorplex

Ennis, TX – Ida enters the weekend fresh off her first NHRA final round appearance during the Midwest Nationals near St. Louis, the most recent event on tour.  This will be her second Texas Motorplex appearance.

Her team will banner Dialight, the world leader in LED industrial lighting technology with millions of LED fixtures installed worldwide, on the side of her dragster this weekend.  JCM currently utilizes Dialight lighting products both at the track and in the race shop. The team will rely on Dialight for LED High Bay lighting and exterior LED Wallpack lighting in the new JCM Racing headquarters in Brownsburg, Ind., scheduled for completion before the end of the year.

Ida talks Texas, “Super excited heading into Texas after our best performance yet in St. Louis. We are very eager to better our position in qualifying and try to go rounds again on Sunday. I’m especially looking forward to this weekend because we will be representing Dialight in Dallas. It’s going to be cool to have an iconic brand like that on the side of our car seeing how our team has such a deep-rooted background in the electric and engineering side of things. We use Dialight products, so we know their quality, and it’s a brand we respect. We are proud and thankful to have them as part of our program when we hit the track in Dallas for the Stampede of Speed. We’re still looking for partners to come on board with us for Pomona and in 2026 and beyond.”
