RACE THE 2027 WORLD SERIES OF PRO MOD
March 5-7, 2027 | Texas Motorplex | Ennis, Texas
There is no qualifying. There is no ladder. There is a chip draw, and then there is sudden death.
That means the two quickest cars in the building can meet in round one. It means seeding cannot save you and a soft draw cannot carry you. It means every single pair is a main event. It is the most honest format in drag racing, and it is why winning this race means what it means.
HOW YOU GET IN
The World Series of Pro Mod is an invitational. The field is built two ways.
Direct invitation. Drivers are invited based on performance, on what they bring to the show, and on what they have earned in this sport.
Qualifier events. Drag Illustrated has an open invitation to Pro Mod promoters across the country: make your race a World Series of Pro Mod qualifier, and your winner earns a guaranteed spot in the field at Texas Motorplex. If you run a Pro Mod race and you want your winner racing for a piece of history in Ennis, we want to hear from you.
THE FIELD IS GETTING HARDER TO MAKE
Across the 2025-26 Drag Illustrated Winter Series, 85 cars showed up at the Snowbird Outlaw Nationals, 75 at the U.S. Street Nationals and 65 at the World Series of Pro Mod. Seventy-five cars a race, chasing 32 spots. At the U.S. Street Nationals every single qualifier ran in the 3.50s, the quickest Pro Modified field ever assembled, and roughly forty cars went home.
In 2027 it gets harder, on purpose. Standing alone as a single crown jewel event rather than the finale of a three-race series, the World Series of Pro Mod will drill down on exclusivity to a level it has not applied since the Bandimere years, when the entire field was sixteen cars and every one of them was there by invitation.
What that means for you
There will be fewer ways in, not more. Getting on the radar early is no longer a formality. Field format and entry details will be announced in the coming weeks, and the people on this list hear first.
REGISTRATION IS NOT OPEN YET
Racer registration, the purse, and the full 2027 entry details will be announced in the coming weeks. We are not going to post a form before the details are real.
What you can do right now is raise your hand. Tell us who you are and what you are running, and you go on the list. When invitations go out and registration opens, the people on this list hear about it first.
