You may have some questions about Tony Wilson Racing so let's try to answer those as we move through this season starting with the first event of the season for the team. The World Series of Pro Mod in Bradenton Florida. Here are some details on the history of this event.
Bradenton Motorsports Park has played host to high-level Pro Modified races for years, but the track’s owner since 2018, Victor Alvarez, has taken that to a new level.
Continuing with the tradition established at the three WSOPMs in the past, the winner of the 2023 WSOPM will walk away with $100,000. It’s the largest purse in Pro Modified history and one of the largest single-event purses in drag racing. Buck and Alvarez both feel strongly that the $100,000 prize is a critical component of the event.
The 2024 WSOPM will utilize an outlaw eighth-mile format. The rules package will resemble the rules already in place for BMP’s existing Pro Mod events, so drivers from NHRA Pro Mod, PDRA Pro Nitrous and Pro Boost, NMCA Xtreme Pro Mod, MWDRS Pro Mod, NEOPMA, and beyond can compete together on a level playing field.
Both Tony and his sister Tisha will be racing in this event.
Tony will be running the 63' Vette, racing for $100k. Tisha will be running Top Dragster, racing for $50k. 60 of the top Pro Mods racers and 40 of the top Dragsters racers in the world will be competing in this invite only event.
This will be the first time for Tony Wilson Racing to run in this event and Rowan County Weather will provide updates before during and after the event. Coming up next week I will have a sit-down interview with Tony Wilson at his race shop about this upcoming event to kick off their 2024 campaign.
