Lighthouse Point, FL – The staff at SHRA (Southern Hot Rod Association) and OSW (Orlando Speed World) are proud to announce the “SOUTHERN HOT ROD NATIONALS” Inaugural “Southern Thunder I” Drag Race at the famed Orlando Speed World Dragway February 7th and 8th. Top notch drag racing & huge crowds have been the trademark of this spectacular track, and SHRA and OSW expect this event to continue for years to come. With thousands of die-hard drag racing fans expected in attendance along with the world’s greatest Pro Mod drag racing teams, this event can become the top independent drag race of the year.

The event is the brainchild of SHRA Founder Steve Coccaro and Ozzy Moya. There was an available date for an event at Orlando Speed World and Ozzy contacted Steve. The decision was to have a ¼ Pro Mod event along with Outlaw 632 Presented by Induction Solutions, Ultra Street Presented by TRZ Motorsports, 275 vs. 28×10.5 and Open Comp, 8.50, 10.00 and 11.0 Index racing. With only 2 months to prepare, Mike Fabian, Carl Robinson, along with Vito Micciolo went to work and quickly went into action securing sponsors, preparing flyers and marketing. SHRA also has a weekly radio show every Tuesday at 7:00 PM http://www.shraonline.com/Radio.html Hosted by Steve Coccaro, Carl Robinson and Vito Micciolo.
