“Anarchy Under the Arch” Starts This Wednesday
Roth isn’t just sitting back and waiting for the racing under the lights to begin. He was at the PDRA event at Tulsa (Okla.) Raceway Park promoting the PSCA’s first-ever race at Gateway Motorsports Park this past weekend, and today has teams handing out event fliers in the Gateway Motorsports Park surrounding areas….
“We’re pretty stoked about this,” he said. “It’s widely accepted that St. Louis is easily one of the best markets for door-slammer racing and we’re excited to be added to that storied history. We’re expecting a great crowd of both racers and fans.” The event kicks off with a 6 hour test session on Weds evening topped off by our 1st Pro Line Racing/Precision Turbo Pro Mod Shootout “Fastest & Quickest” Pass for Cash at 11pm
Anarchy at the Arch, the first SCSN to be held outside of Las Vegas, is bringing West Coast racing to the Midwest Aug. 20-23 to fans who, possibly more than any others, truly appreciate Pro Mod and doorslammer racing. The area is home to Jerry Haas, Jerry Bickle, and Tim McAmis, the best Pro Mod/Pro Stock fabricators in the business and their cars figure to be featured prominently under the lights in the Gateway City. Two-time defending SCSN and former NHRA Pro Mod champion Troy Coughlin will be there, as will drivers like Jim Bell and Mike Knowles in his famous “Blown Money” Pro Mod.
The event might just be one of the best-covered drag races in the country this year, featuring full coverage from Competition Plus, Drag Illustrated, Dragzine, DragRacingOnline.com, and a LIVE web feed from Bang Shift.
“If you miss this, you may have missed the best race of the year,” said PSCA President Mel Roth. “This is one of those events I don’t even have to brag about; it sells itself.”
The turbo-charged onslaught is headed by ProLine Racing and Team Q80 with cars like the Tim McAmis’ built “Team Moits” Mustang driven by Australian racer Paul Mouhayet, Fiscus/Klugger Racing to name a few. The Stanley & Weiss LJRC Cadillac is sure to wow the fans. In addition, the top tuners in the game like Jon Salemi is turning wrenches on the “Orange Crush” Camaro of John Sullivan.
“Let’s not forget about the Midwest teams like Ron Muenks, Housley and Wooton,” Roth said. “And what about the West Coast teams that have made some of the quickest passes in the world? Maggio, Diedrich, Seth-Hunter, Hairston? Do I really have to go on? If you’re a drag racing fan, this is heaven. If you’re not a drag racing fan, you’ll become one.”
“Small Tire Warriors”? They are coming in force from all the surrounding areas!! Outlaw 8.5 has names like Hamming, Collins, Knowles, Beezley, Schuler, Harper, Parsons, Crain, Ramsey, Kenzevich & Maggard to name a few…
