Lucas Oil
Top Dragster Heads Into New Era
PITTSBORO, N.C. (March 7, 2018): After the huge success of
the pilot program for Top Sportsman in 2017, the PDRA
opened Lucas Oil Top Dragster up to include both Elite Top
Dragster and the Top Dragster 32 category. Lucas Oil Top
Dragster has been well supported by racers across the
country and this program will allow the field to grow
without sacrificing the performance and integrity of the
category.
Lucas Oil will usher Top Dragster into this new era,
continuing their multi-year backing of the class. Lucas
Oil is known for their unmatched support in motorsports,
going above and beyond to support teams, series and
events, continually pushing the industry forward. It’s
fitting, then, that Lucas Oil will be the name that takes
Top Dragster into its next phase.
“I am still a big fan of this class,” stated Lucas Oil’s
Tom Bogner. “I believe great growth potential as these
cars run all over the country. It’s a perfect place for
quality lubricants like Lucas Oil. These are big
horsepower cars utilizing a variety of power adders, as
well as large cubic inch engines. I find it much more
rewarding supporting classes that can benefit from our
Lucas oil products and Top Dragster is a great fit.
“We look forward to seeing the winners using our Lucas oil
Products as they chase the Championship this year.”
Hickory Enclosed Trailer Sales is back again this year to
sponsor the Low Qualifier Award in both Lucas Oil Top
Dragster and MagnaFuel Top Sportsman. As competitors in
the categories, Jeff Pittman and Angie Travis understand
the dedication, energy and funds it takes to compete at
the top and have chosen to sponsor the Low Qualifier
Awards in an effort to give back. They provide the both
trailers and motorcoaches through Hickory Enclosed Trailer
Sales and Racing Performance Motorcoaches.

“Lucas Oil sets a standard
for the industry that makes us very proud to be aligned with them,” stated
PDRA Marketing Director, Will Smith. “Their products are top notch and
their support and presence in the industry is unmatched. We’re excited for
this new season of Lucas Oil Top Dragster and hope to see many racers
using Lucas products.
“We also appreciate Hickory Enclosed Trailer Sales coming back again for
the Low Qualifier Award,” Smith added. “We’re seeing many of our sponsors
continue year after year. This is essential to the growth of each class
and the PDRA as a whole. We’re grateful to have such great support to keep
us moving forward.”
Although Lucas Oil is synonymous with racing, their products meet the
needs for a vast array of lubricant applications. From racing to street
cars, industrial to marine, and even to fishing reels and guns, Lucas Oil
