Jason Scruggs’ third win in the ADRL in 2012 ended up being one of his favorite and it also proved to be a historic one. Other winners included Bob Rahaim (Pro Nitrous), Dennis Sugrue (Mickey Thompson Extreme 10.5), Eric McKinney (Pro Extreme Motorcycle), and John Montecalvo (Extreme Pro Stock).
Shannon “Iceman” Jenkins has been a staple at the ADRL’s prestigious Dragstock race, first appearing at the event in 2005. At the ninth rendition of the race on Saturday, Jenkins delivered another trademark performance in Pro Nitrous, this time at the ADRL’s first appearance at zMAX Dragway.

Bo Butner is quickly becoming the most dominant driver in the American Drag Racing League’s incredible new SuperCar Showdown category but his victory at the ADRL’s Summer Drags VIII at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park in Martin, Michigan, proved he is ahead of his closest rivals by only the slimmest of margins.
This weekend, the American Drag League returns to the Virginia Motorsports Park just outside of Richmond, Virginia for the U.S. Drags V, and DRAGZINE will be in the house all weekend long, providing same day coverage, news and notes from the pits, and photos of the non-stop racing action!
The American Drag Racing League makes its much-awaited return to the Gateway Motorsports Park this weekend – the series’ home track – for the fourth rendition of the ADRL Gateway Drags presented by CarSafe.
Chris Holbrook finally defeated the undefeated Bo Butner in the ADRL SuperCar Showdown division on Saturday night at the Northeast Drags II at Maple Grove Raceway in Pennsylvania, earning his first win in the category and the third in a row for the Ford Mustang Cobra Jet.
Fresh off an exciting event in Bristol just two weeks ago, the stars of the American Drag Racing League head to the Northeast and the scenic Maple Grove Raceway in Reading, Pa. for the third event of the season – the Northeast Drags II.

Extreme Pro Stock driver Cary Goforth and Pro Extreme Motorcycle rider Ashley Owens both doubled-up to cap off a memorable weekend at Summit Motorsports Park. Two other drivers got a chance to celebrate for the first time in the ADRL, as Mick Snyder and Jim Laurita both picked up their first career ADRL wins.
Thanks to rain at this year’s Dragpalooza VI in March, we’re witnessing a back to back weekend double event at Houston Raceway Park. Among all the powerhouses in ADRL Pro Extreme, E/T record holder Frankie Taylor is bringing out an all-new 2005 Corvette, extremely similar to his old record ride, but lighter…
The world class doorslammers and Nitro funny cars have not much in common aside from the fact that we love to watch ‘em thunder down the 1320, but could the ADRL be reaching out to the NHRA fan crowd and even one of their past funny car champions? At this past weekend’s NHRA race, a little evidence of Tony Pedregon an ADRL branching together was found hiding in plain sight.

Coby Rabon’s Wild Pro-Mod Mustang Gets Some Changes At Texas Chassisworks
by Chris Taylor
on June 18, 2010
Ever since this big-tire Mustang poked its head outside of Proline’s shop doors, we’ve been pretty impressed with what Coby, tuner Steve Petty and everyone else involved with this ride have pulled off – staying competitive anywhere from the PSCA to the ADRL week in and week out is an impressive feat in itself. After a brief encounter with the wall a couple weeks back, the car was brought over to Texas Chassisworks in Tyler, TX for a few key changes and repairs.
