16th Annual Nitto Tire NMRA World Finals Race Wrap
Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green, Kentucky hosts an action-packed event where records were broken and champions were crowned!
Santa Ana, CA – The 2014 racing season has been an insanely-competitive one, making the weeks leading up to the 16th Annual Nitto Tire
NMRA All-Ford World Finals filled with anticipation. This was the closing event of the NMRA Keystone Automotive Ford Nationals series. As the weekend progressed, so did the excitement as championship battles came closer to a head. By the end of Sunday’s activities the NMRA had crowned 10 new World Champions and 12 class winners.
In ATF Speed Street Outlaw, reigning champion Phil Hines led the qualifying with a record-shattering 6.87 at 202. That pass put him at the top of the field, but also lifted a cylinder head, putting his championship bid in peril. The championship came down to the semis, where Hines met John Urist, and the repaired cylinder head didn’t hold, causing Hines to skim the wall and allowing Urist to advance into the final and take the championship. Urist capped off his ninth championship with an anti-climactic final round single as Andy Manson was unable to make the final round call.

Aerospace Components NHRA Unleashed Program with NMCA/NMCA WEST to Conclude in 2014
Santa Ana, CA – The Aerospace Components NHRA Unleashed program, which has been a part of NMCA & NMCA WEST events since
mid-2011, will conclude with the final event in 2014. Having similar race categories, NMCA assisted NHRA by taking over the Unleashed program in mid-2011 to support their racers and sponsors. The Unleashed program continued with NMCA/NMCA WEST through a multi-year sponsorship for almost four years.
“Since we had the only series outside of NHRA that was able to award Wallys to racers, it was very special,” said Steve Wolcott, President & CEO of ProMedia Events. “We understood that the program would only last a few years and we were happy that we were able to partner with NHRA to bring their Unleashed program to a very deserving group of racers.”
