Prolube Oil joins forces with the World Drag Racing Alliance (WDRA) as the class sponsor for the Free $5,000-to-win Sportsman Gamblers Race contested at the WDRA Summit World Championships.
Partnering with a drag racing sanctioning body is a full-circle moment for Prolube Oil founder Paul Wireman, who owned and operated Riverside Dragstrip & Speedway for fourteen years, beginning in 1964. As a car enthusiast and late model racer, Wireman began experimenting with oil additives in hopes of creating a competitive edge on the racing surface. He adjusted the formula throughout the late 1980s until the development of the Prolube Oil Treatment, which reduces friction, increases engine life, and even expands the time between oil changes. This winning combination has been used to secure five National Championships in NASCAR, NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle, and JEGS Pro Stock Truck and is now welcomed as a marketing partner for the sportsman racing ranks with the WDRA.
“The Prolube team is thrilled to partner with the WDRA for a great event that gives back directly to the racers,” said Jake Wireman with Prolube Oil. “This partnership is very meaningful to us because it takes us back to our roots and feels like home.”
The talented Summit Sportsman Drag Racing Series racers who qualify to compete at the year-end WDRA Summit World Championships will be able to warm up for the main event by participating in $5K Gamblers Races for each class. Prolube Oil will sponsor the Sportsman class for the 2025 season. The WDRA Summit World Championships are scheduled for October 23-25, 2025, at Montgomery International Dragway.
“The Free Friday $5K Gamblers Races are a great example of how the WDRA works to reward their racers,” said Jessica Spears with WDRA. “Taking the generous contributions from supporting companies and delivering it right back into the racer’s hands is almost unheard of. It’s always exciting to develop partnerships with companies like Prolube Oil who want to work to keep motorsports alive and well.”
Proudly manufactured in the USA, Prolube Oil Treatment can be used in a wide variety of applications, from racing, classic cars, and motorcycles to daily drivers, lawnmowers, side-by-sides, and even boat engines.
