Kooks Custom Headers Powers Eight Winners At NMRA/NMCA Super Bowl

It’s easy to see why Kooks Custom Headers is so legendary in the aftermarket exhaust business – they’ve got parts on champions all around the globe. This past weekend, Kooks Custom headers were under the hood on eight of the winners at the NMRA/NMCA Super Bowl of Street legal Drag Racing at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois.

The NMCA Pro Street winner, Jim Widener, totes around a set of Kooks pipes on his Bischoff Engine Service-built, 856 cubic-inch nitrous-injected big-block Chevy-powered Mercury Cougar chassis, and took home the event win on Sunday afternoon against the always-tough Kevin Fiscus. All weekend long Widener was running like a bracket car, with four elimination passes ranging from 6.102 to 6.119 – an insanely tight range when you’re talking about a car of this level. 

Super Street winner Mark Micke took home the win in the makeup Atlanta race along with the win for the Route 66 event, marking a double-sweet weekend for the transmission builder from Missouri. He’s driving Jason Carter’s twin-turbo Malibu this season and has a virtual stranglehold on the Super Street title halfway through the season, as the team has won all three events so far in 2013. Skip Baskin’s also using a set of Kooks headers in his nitroused Nostalgia Pro Street Camaro to great success – he took home the win in his class in a race over the always-tough Dave Beeson.

Other racers taking home Super Bowl event wins with a set of Kooks headers under the hood included Brian Mitchell in NMRA Renegade, Jacob Lamb in NMRA Coyote Stock, Susan Roush-McClenaghan in NMRA Modular Muscle, and NMCA Mean Street event winner Brian Campbell. A wide range of competitors racinn across a very wide range of classes, but they all rely on one thing in common to get into the winner’s circle – Kooks Custom Headers.
