a top car this weekend". At last year's
Pro Mod event in Mission, Delehay and the
PM Motorsports team qualified #1 with a

ran our career best at Mission with that
car, and this year we have a brand new Tim

OFFICIAL MRP PRESS RELEASE
PRO MOD CHALLENGE RETURNS TO MISSION
Mission, B.C., June 22, 2007 – One of the most popular classes in all of drag racing hits the track at Mission Raceway Park next weekend, June 30 – July 1.
That class is Pro Modified, and these wild-and-crazy cars, the fastest in the world with fully functioning doors as opposed to one-piece bodies, are the headliners in the Pro Mod Challenge, a West Coast Pro Mod Association series race.
Some two dozen of these 230-mph monsters, which are either supercharged and alcohol-burning or carbureted with nitrous oxide, will attempt to qualify for the 16-car final field, the first-ever at Mission for these cars, which could lead to what many are predicting will be personal-best performances by most of the racers, especially if the weather stays cool. Last year in those conditions, near-world record times were run.
At least ten of the entries consist of Canadians, and two B.C. drivers will uphold local honour. Trevor Lowe will represent Agassiz and the Fraser Valley with his '67 Chevy Camaro, and Glen May comes from Richmond with his Cranberry Connection Ford Ranger.
The rest of the Canadians are the cream of the crop from Ontario and the Prairies, including Carl Spiering from Ontario, Kenny Lang from Winnipeg, and Glen Kerunsky and Joe Delehay from Calgary.
In addition to the Pro Modified cars, a co-feature at Mission will be the Canadian Pro Street Association Street Car Series. The fastest street-legal cars in the West will all be at Mission, running 200 mph in under seven seconds.
Not only that, the RJ Enterprises Canada West Doorslammer Association, featuring 7-second cars that could be called “baby” Pro Mods, will run its fifth event of the season at Mission, making for an event tailor-made for fans of fast “stock-looking” cars.
This will be one of the most action-packed weekends of the racing season at Mission, a true racing happening.
Qualifying will be held on Saturday with the first of three Pro Mod sessions at noon, while final eliminations will begin Sunday at 11:30 am. Admission is $15 each day, including pit pass. Accompanied children 12 or under are admitted free of charge.
