GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • The Elite Motorsports Million drops a game-changing $1,000,000 prize for any Pro Modified driver who can sweep all three 2025-2026 Drag Illustrated Winter Series races at Bradenton. While the announcement doesn’t specify Pro Mod competitors, six-time Pro Stock world champion ERICA ENDERS is part of Richard Freeman’s Elite Motorsports operation that’s backing this historic payout.
  • Freeman’s Elite Motorsports has been expanding beyond their Pro Stock dynasty into Pro Mod and Mountain Motor classes, positioning their drivers – including ENDERS – as potential contenders for drag racing’s largest single-performance prize. The three-race gauntlet includes the Snowbird Outlaw Nationals, U.S. Street Nationals, and World Series of Pro Mod spanning December through February.
  • This million-dollar challenge represents more than prize money – it’s Freeman putting his reputation behind elevating drag racing’s profile and giving racers bragging rights against other motorsports. With ENDERS’ championship pedigree and Elite’s resources, we’re watching to see if she transitions to Pro Mod to chase this unprecedented opportunity.

UPCOMING:

  • Snowbird Outlaw Nationals – Dec. 5-7, 2025
  • U.S. Street Nationals – Jan. 23-25, 2026
  • World Series of Pro Mod – Feb. 26-28, 2026
