PMra: thE COntEndErs I
n 2014, the Pro Modified Racing Asso- ciation is celebrating its tenth year of
operation. The popular tour continues to enjoy success as one of the sport’s most popular Pro Modified drag racing series. While winning races is important to
capturing the annual championship, at- tendance at races is also crucial for accu- mulating points. With his victory in the opening round at
Grand Bend, three-time PMRA champion Bruce Boland could be on his way to a fourth title. From Stoney Creek, Ontario, Boland drives a 1968 Firebird for 2014. Other likely top contenders in the hunt
for wins and this year’s PMRA champi- onship include: the Grainy Brothers from Tonawanda, New york with their 1967 Camaro; Jeff Roth (Kitchener, Ontario) and his beautifully prepared 1941 Willys; Derek Hawker (Corbyville, Ontario), who pilots his 1968 Firebird; and Jason Kalso (Clarkston, Michigan) and his 1971 Bar- racuda. In June, at US 131 Motorsports Park,
Randy Adler (Tinley Park, Illinois) scored his first PMRA win when he guided his ’57 Chevy Pro Mod to victory in the finals against Boland. In terms of new teams taking to the
track in 2014, there are at least two of note, who could make an immediate im- pact. Quebec City’s Denis LaChance is anticipated to appear with his Chevy Corvette Pro Mod. Also expected is Jason White (Cicero, New york) with his 1951 Chevrolet. •
(Top to bottom) bruce boland, Jason kalso and derek hawker all come up in the discussion of who will contend for wins and the title in 2014.
