The Mid-West Drag Racing Series, R&M Race Trailers, and Sandlian Auto Salvage have joined forces, making Fueltech Pro 4.20 better for racers in the pits and fans in the stands.

The partnership features Sandlian Auto Salvage hopping on not just for the five races Pro 4.20 will be contested at, but adding money to the racers as well. The Best E.T. and Best Reaction during eliminations will be awarded a $250 prize each. There will also be two “Long Haul Awards” for a $250 prize, awarded to the team that made the longest trip to be at each Pro 4.20 race in the MWDRS 10th anniversary season.

R&M Race Trailers of Cushing, OK is hopping on board too, supplying a $250 bonus to the #1 qualifier at every event, bringing each race to over $1,250 in bonuses on top of the purse for each race.

“We’re paying $2,500 to the winners, and paying all the way down to the first round of eliminations. Fueltech, M&M Transmission, R&M Race Trailers, Sandlian Auto Salvage, and Champion Auto Lifts. We couldn’t do it without them. We are giving away more money this year than ever before, for just a $275 entry fee! I’m really excited about 2026,” said reigning Pro 4.20 champion and class founder Dave Pierce.

The Mid-West Drag Racing Series is ready for an old-school shootout at Xtreme Raceway Park April 17-18th.
