Royal Purple Confirms Pro Dragster Sponsorship for 2012 Manufacturers Cup Races

The 2012 Manufacturers Cup schedule has yet to be released, but no matter when and where these races take place, Royal Purple Pro Dragster will likely be back as a category.

Class organizer and racer Johnny Vickers of Hawaya Racing announced Royal Purple has committed to returning as a class sponsor.

Pro Dragter is one of the most unique classes in drag racing. It features nitro-burning, carbureted, high-gear, V-twin motorcycles.

At the Manufacturers Cup Fall race last season, Vickers set  a new record at 7.128, eclipsing the previous mark of 7.139 held by Rick Moore.
