The IHRA Outlaw Pro Mod Nationals will headline a major weekend of drag racing at Darana Dragway – Milan with a $125,000 winner’s purse drawing top-tier Pro Modified competitors from across the country.
Racing takes place Friday and Saturday, Aug. 8-9, at the newly rebranded facility formerly known as Milan Dragway.
Headlining the 32-car Pro Mod field are drivers such as Frankie “Mad Man” Taylor, Kye Kelley, Ken Quartuccio, Robin Roberts, Wes Distefano, Kallee Mills, and Craig Sullivan.

It’s going to be a great weekend for racers and fans.”
The event also includes Mountain Motor Pro Stock with $15,000-to-win, featuring standouts such as John Montecalvo and Dwayne Rice. Top Sportsman competitors will compete for a $6,000 purse.
