The newly-formed World Drag Racing Alliance (WDRA) sanctioning body is already picking up speed, with the recent announcement that it has inked a sponsor agreement with Summit Racing.

As part of the quarter-million dollar Summit Sportsman Drag Racing Series, the arrangement includes the race for the track championship at member WDRA tracks during the year, the WDRA Summit Bracket Finals series of events and the WDRA Summit World Championships at Darlington Dragway at the end of the season.

“Sportsman racers, along with the facilities and entities that support them, will always remain as a keystone of the Summit Racing Equipment family.

The opportunity to work with the WDRA, the facility owners and operators, and every racer in the program is a point of pride for us. I look forward to shaking hands with an inaugural set of Summit World Champions in the winners circle this fall.”

Jim Greenleaf, Summit Racing Motorsports and Events Manager.

The Summit Sportsman Drag Racing Series kicks off in 2023. As the season progresses, the best racers at each WDRA member track will be put in head-to-head competition at the Summit Bracket Finals and the individual WDRA track champions face off at the Summit World Finals at Darlington Dragway in October, 2023.
