After COVID-19 restrictions prevented the Professional Drag Racers Association (PDRA) from making its annual stop at Maryland International Raceway in 2020, the series and its racers are charged up for their Maryland return at the North vs. South Shootout presented by Line-X, June 24-26.
“Maryland International Raceway has been a staple on the PDRA tour, so we definitely missed this place last year,” said Tyler Crossnoe, race director, PDRA. “A number of our biggest stars call Maryland home, and we have a ton of fans in this area. We’re all excited to get back to Budds Creek to put on a show and crown some event champions at the North vs. South Shootout.”
Racing in their second of six races with the PDRA this season, the Drag 965 Pro Nitrous Motorcycle riders will add a two-wheeled flair to the PDRA’s doorslammer-focused show. Perennial championship contender Chris Garner-Jones is the points leader aboard his Jones Racing Hayabusa, while past world champions Travis Davis and Eric McKinney give chase.
Pre-race testing at the North vs. South Shootout will take place on Thursday from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m. A driver’s meeting will start Friday’s activities at 8:30 a.m., followed by the first Top Jr. Dragster qualifying session at 9:30. Pro qualifying sessions will follow at 2 p.m., 5:30 and 7:15. Sportsman and Jr. Dragster classes will get a final qualifying session at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, with eliminations starting at 12:45 p.m. Pre-race ceremonies and pro class eliminations will begin at 3:25 p.m.
