PHOTO GALLERY: Celebrating Bristol, GALOT Victories at PDRA DragWars

Gary Rowe photos

The stars of the Red Line Oil PDRA Drag Racing Series wrapped up a busy weekend at GALOT Motorsports Park with the ProFab DragWars presented by PST Driveshafts, the seventh stop on the 2025 tour. In addition to deciding new winners under the lights at GALOT, the weekend also gave racers a chance to finish what they started at the Thunder Valley Throwdown presented by Larry Jeffers Race Cars, which was rained out in late August at Bristol Dragway.

From hard-fought victories to emotional celebrations, our winner’s circle photo gallery highlights the drivers, teams, and families who earned their place at the top during this pivotal late-season doubleheader. Shot by DI contributing photographer Gary Rowe, these photos capture the pride, relief, and joy that come with clinching a PDRA 660 Man.
