As the 2025 SEMA Show winds down in Las Vegas and attention turns to the end of the NHRA season, Professional Racers Owners Organization, today announced the addition of another Premier Sponsor adding Hangsterfer’s Laboratories to the growing list of companies supporting the 2nd annual SCAG Power Equipment PRO Superstar Shootout, February 6-8, 2025, in Bradenton, Florida. Hangsterfer’s Laboratories will utilize the three-day specialty event held at Bradenton Motorsports Park to highlight their relationship with Top Fuel championship contending driver Antron Brown as well as promote their expansive line of metalworking lubricants such as Supreme Coat Plus, a rust preventative for chassis protection, Super All Tap, for drill and tap needs, and Crystal Cut®, used to cut flywheels and pressure plates, to the drag racing community.

“Hangsterfer’s is about to complete a decade with Antron Brown and AB Motorsports supporting the Matco Tools Top Fuel team and our involvement in the PRO Superstar Shootout is the perfect opportunity to announce our involvement in year 11,” said Mike Ditzel, Hangsterfer’s Global Director of Motorsports Performance Products. “Our relationship has expanded both in business and personally, and drag racing has given us a great opportunity to nurture B2B partnerships to grow our business and support ABM. We’re extremely proud to continue to support Antron and his teams and the sport of drag racing.”

Hangsterfer’s Laboratories, a major manufacturer of metalworking lubricants, has worked with Antron Brown and AB Motorsports since 2014. The third-generation family owned and operated business has been in operation for over 80 years, specializing in research, development, custom formulation, and manufacturing of a full-line of high-quality metalworking lubricants. This includes emulsifiable oils, semi-synthetics, synthetics, straight cutting oils, drawing and forming compounds, EDM fluid, and machine lubricants. 

“We’re excited to build off the amazing success we saw last February at Bradenton with the inaugural PRO Superstar Shootout in three months,” Brown said. “The stands were packed all three days and we’re excited to showcase our professional drag racing 2025 season kick off on FloRacing. Thank you to Hangsterfer’s for continuing to support AB Motorsports and the sport of drag racing. Hangsterfer’s is a great success story of how drag racing can work for your business to grow and we’re excited to sport the Hangsterfer’s green on our Matco Tools dragster in ’25.”

The 2nd annual SCAG PRO Superstar Shootout is shaping up once again to be a must-attend major drag racing event. Creating an exciting atmosphere for fans and a dynamic marketing environment for sponsors and marketing partners the PRO Superstar Shootout will feature the unique chip draw selection process in every round of eliminations as well as a Top Fuel versus Funny Car elimination ladder for a select group of competitors.

Additional announcements including participating drivers, additional sponsors and schedule of events, including open Testing on Thursday, February 6, will be announced shortly at www.prosuperstarshootout.com. Tickets can be purchased here.
