LAT Racing Oils Named the Powered By Sponsor for the Inaugural NHRA Pro Mod Event in Phoenix, AZ

A strong list of Congruity NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series presented by LearnEV+ stars will be competing for the first time ever as part of the NHRA Arizona Nationals at Firebird Motorsports Park this weekend. 

20 Pro Mods are entered for this inaugural event and will make the trek to the second stop of the 2024 season.  The Pro Mod class will be powered by LAT Racing Oils, a company that has considerable first hand knowledge and development of producing superior synthetic and petroleum racing oils, reducing operating temperatures while providing stable, consistent pressure readings. 

"We are proud to sponsor the NHRA Pro Mod class at Phoenix,” LAT Racing Oils’ Co-owner, Danny Vaca said. “As a leader in performance lubricants we support many Pro Mod teams with high-performance racing oils designed to help power these engines to the winner’s circle. We are looking forward to seeing first-hand how our lubricants perform at this race.”

The inaugural event in Phoenix will also include the Total Seal Pro Mod Showdown, which will deliver extra excitement during qualifying and consists of the driver putting together the best E.T. average over the course of the four qualifying rounds.  The winner will receive a $10,000 bonus from Total Seal Piston Rings and renowned Pro Stock Racer, Matt Hartford.  

There will be plenty of action on track, with no defending champion from 2023, the path is open for the current points leader, Jose Gonzales, to continue his great start in 2024 although he’ll have to get around a group of standout racers.  This year the class welcomed new drivers like Tony Wilson in the Tim Wallace owned ‘55 Chevy and the renowned ‘outlaw’ racer Mike Stavrinos who joined the Mike Janis Racing team following Mike Thielen’s move to nitrous, running out of the Rickie Smith camp. Mike Thielen stole the top qualifying position in his first event at the Gatornationals last month.  

The Congruity NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series presented by LearnEV+ will kick off with two qualifying rounds on Friday at 3:30 PM and 6:00 PM MST with the final two qualifying rounds set for 11:00 AM and 1:30 PM MST on Saturday, following an autograph session at Nitro Alley Stage.  The first round of eliminations is slated for 12:25 PM MST on Sunday.  

The Congruity NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series presented by LearnEV+ and powered by LAT Racing Oils will feature in the finals show on FS1 Sunday April 7th, 2024. 

About LAT Racing Oils

LAT’s substantial investments, “at track” first hand knowledge, and superior chemical engineering and blending capabilities, have proved to be more than empty claims as vehicles competing in a vast array of competition venues have worked their way to the top using LAT products. Both NHRA Pro Mod World Champions, Jose Gonzalez in 2021, and Kris Thorne in 2022 use LAT Oils to claim the Championship podium and many of their closest competitors are also relying on LAT engine, transmission and gear oils.

Founded in 2007 by a duo of professional racers in search of the elusive “edge”. They recognized the potential for increasing horsepower, reliability and longevity using advanced lubrication technology to fine tune engine transmissions and final drive gears. Based on that premise LAT was established with the sole purpose of developing superior performing synthetic and petroleum racing oils, regardless of cost.

Since then, LAT has developed a complete line of high performance engine break-in oils to include: PRO-15, 5w30 and 20w50. Additionally the introduction of LAT’s Pro ATF caught even the most hardcore skeptics off guard by substantially reducing operating temperatures while providing stable, consistent pressure readings.
