This weekend marked the 9th Annual running of the revived Doorslammers event, powered by Fueltech, at Santa Pod Raceway. Being an outlaw event, there is always a huge variety of cars and combinations that don’t fit the standard FIA rulebook, and some of the cars running in FIA competition will change their combos for this event only. With Andy Robinson and the Anger Management team being one of the few remaining Pro Mod cars using a clutch, they decided to take full advantage of the Outlaw format, installing an EZ Motorsports lock up clutch. Qualifying was cut short due to some inclement weather conditions, but the Anger Management team qualified in a strong No. 4 position, with worldwide Pro Mod racer and superstar DJ Carl Cox holding the No. 1 spot. Qualifying position isn’t as important on race day, however, as pairings are drawn at random in a chip draw for each round, adding to the outlaw style drama of this event. Robinson drew FIA Pro Stock racer Michael Malmgren in the first round, the same driver who defeated Andy last year. This time the Anger Management team flipped the script, defeating Malmgren, David Vegter and Lars Sjoholm on the way to the final. Perhaps more impressive was the team’s improvement in performance, from an opening 5.90 on Friday to a near personal best 5.821 at 247.82 mph as the team dialed the new clutch system in. Unfortunately, Robinson couldn’t quite overcome the mighty turbo power that Andres Arnover and the Fast Ford Racing team from Estonia utilised in the final, with Robinson’s 5.82 coming up short against Arnover’s 5.73 at an impressive 259.65 mph. However, the team is thrilled with an excellent second-place finish after a weekend of relentless competition. The result marks another major achievement for Robinson and the Anger Management operation, adding further momentum to their 2026 campaign ahead of the upcoming FIA European Championship season. The Anger Management/Robinson Race Cars team would like to thank their sponsors and performance partners: Star Racer belts, Mike Janis Superchargers, NGK Spark Plugs UK, Nimbus Motorsport, PAC Racing Springs, Brown and Miller Racing Solutions, Noonan Race Engineering, EZ Motorsports, PRS and Manton Rocker Arms, as well as a huge thanks to the dedicated and hard working ‘Anger Management’ crew.

Now two races into the seven-race 2026 Red Line Oil PDRA Drag Racing Series season, serious contenders are emerging as the series returns to Virginia Motorsports Park this weekend for the Mid-Atlantic Showdown presented by Classic Graphix, May 21-23. It’s still early in the world championship battles, but racers across the PDRA’s professional, sportsman, and Jr. Dragster categories are fighting for all the points they can get to contend for a season title. VMP, located in the history-rich area just outside Richmond, is the next battlefield in that fight. “Virginia Motorsports Park has been a part of the PDRA since the beginning,” said Tyler Crossnoe, series director, PDRA. “We called this track home for several years and it’s always great to come back. From the pro ranks to the Jr. Dragster classes, a lot of our racers call Virginia and the surrounding area home as well. They grew up racing here or they race here on a weekly basis. The local fans always know when we’re coming to town, too, so we’re excited to put on a show for them. We’re going to deal with some weather, no doubt, but our team is prepared to do what it takes to keep things rolling.” For the second consecutive race on the PDRA tour, FloRacing will offer a free livestream through its FloRacing 24/7 channel. For Friday qualifying only, fans can stream for free on FloRacing 24/7 through Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Fubo, and other free video platforms. Saturday eliminations will also be available for FloRacing subscribers. Three-time world champion Tommy Franklin is back on top as the points leader in Switzer Dynamics Pro Nitrous presented by Jerry Bickel Race Cars driving his Musi-powered “Jungle Rat 3.0” ’69 Camaro. He qualified No. 1 at the season opener and raced to victory at the last stop on tour, the Summit Racing Equipment East Coast Nationals presented by FuelTech at Darana Motorsports Park – Benson, NC. “Mountain Man” Mike Achenbach, who won the season opener in his return to Pro Nitrous, sits second in his Fulton-powered ’20 Camaro.

With a semifinal finish in his ProCharger-boosted “Hells Bells” ’69 Camaro at Benson, he’s also the points leader going into Virginia. Two-time Pro Boost world champion Jason Harris, who won at Benson in his Harts Charger-boosted “Party Time” ’69 Camaro, is second in points. Melanie Salemi sits just a few points behind Harris in third with a No. 1 qualifier award and runner-up finish at the last race in her screw-blown Al-Lee Installations “Purple Reign” ’68 Firebird.

Jerry Morgano, who qualified No. 1 and reached the final round at the season opener in his turbocharged, small-block “Copperhead” ’02 Mustang, is second in the standings. Virginia’s own Ron Green is third chasing his first win of the season in his screw-blown “Gamechanger” ’00 Firebird. J.C. Beattie Jr. is running away with the points lead in Pro 632 presented by Mark Williams Enterprises, where he won both races, qualified No. 1 at the season opener, and qualified No. 2 at the second race in his Reher-Morrison-powered ATI Performance Products ’18 Camaro. Former Top Sportsman standout Jeff Pittman, now in his second year in the class, earned his first career No. 1 qualifier award at the last race driving his Barry Allen-powered Hickory Enclosed Trailer Sales ’68 Chevelle and was runner-up at the season opener to sit second in points. Newcomer David Cook Jr. is third in his Nelson-powered Copy&PrintWarehouse.com ’10 GTO with a runner-up finish at Benson. Defending 1320 Fabrication Super Street presented by Brian’s Heating & Cooling world champion Connor McGee picked up where he left off, as he’s the points leader once again two races into the season. The driver of the Fulton-powered Brian’s Heating & Cooling ’90 Mustang won the season opener and qualified No. 1 and raced to the final round at Benson. His championship challenger last season, Austin Vincent, is chasing him again as the No. 2 driver in points. Vincent in his nitrous-fed Vincent Performance ’88 Mustang won the last race in Benson. Dan Whetstine, the 2024 world champion, is third in his ProCharged “Red Velvet” ’91 Mustang with a runner-up finish at the season opener.

Chicago native TJ Zizzo and the Rust-Oleum-backed Zizzo Racing team turned in a memorable weekend performance at their home event, the Gerber Collision & Glass Route 66 NHRA Nationals presented by PEAK, advancing into race day after qualifying No. 10 in a stacked Top Fuel field at Route 66 Raceway. Zizzo piloted the Rust-Oleum Top Fuel dragster to a strong 3.774-second pass at 331.61 mph during Friday night qualifying, securing the team’s spot for race day and once again proving why Zizzo Racing is regarded as one of the toughest part-time operations in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series. In Sunday’s opening round, Zizzo squared off against four-time Top Fuel world champion Antron Brown in one of the most competitive matchups of the first round. Zizzo lost the starting line advantage over Brown, but he stayed in contention throughout the run before Brown narrowly drove around him for the win. “We gave Antron [Brown] a run for his money,” said Zizzo. “The car performed, and the driver did okay. Most importantly, besides giving Antron a run for the money, my dad left here with a smile. That’s always a positive in our book here at Zizzo Racing. Look around, we had fun. This is probably the most fun I’ve had at Chicago in a long time.” For Zizzo, the weekend represented far more than just on-track performance. Racing in front of family, friends, sponsors and hometown fans made the Route 66 event one of the highlights of the season for the Chicago-based driver, who is competing in a limited schedule during the 2026 season. Throughout the weekend, Zizzo hosted his annual Nitro Cakes pancake breakfast for fans and welcomed approximately 250 guests through the team’s hospitality and suite experience at the track.“We had roughly 250 people here,” said Zizzo. “We had a suite, we had the Kittie’s Warriors charity on the midway, we had hospitality and we had MTT Master Truck & Trailer RVs out here. We had so much going on and it was a blast.” The weekend also served as another reminder of the consistency and professionalism the Zizzo Racing operation has become known for despite its part-time schedule. “It’s always so cool to pull this car out, and out-qualify people who do this for a living,” said Zizzo. “When I go to other race shops to get advice or pick up parts, they say to me, ‘you guys are the best part-time team out there.’ And that’s an incredible thing to hear.” Zizzo was quick to credit his experienced crew for the team’s continued success against the sport’s full-time powerhouses. “My crew guys are the best,” said Zizzo. “And what they love is the nods they get from other teams, after we go out there and rip a good session. Those little nods that other teams give our team members are what keeps bringing them back. We go up there, we look professional, we act professional, and things work out in our direction most of the time.” Zizzo Racing’s next race will be the Cornwell Quality Tools NHRA U.S. Nationals on September 2-7 at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.

For full-time Chicago firefighter and Funny Car driver and team owner Chris King the Gerber Collision & Glass Route 66 NHRA Nationals presented by Peak was a solid start to his 2026 NHRA season. The independent team rolled into Rt. 66 Raceway looking to make four quality runs in qualifying, earn a spot in the 16-car field and represent their sponsors Howards Cams/Competition Products with strong runs on race day. King made the most of the three-day national event earning the No. 16 qualifier spot with a solid 4.142 second run at 266.79 mph pass. For his efforts he drew the No. 1 qualifier and defending event winner Jack Beckman. “We’re finally getting this car dialed in, and it’s only getting better,” said King. “This Howards Cam/Competition Products Funny Car is fast, but this chassis is older, the body is older, and those older technologies don’t like fast. Now we’re fighting old technology with power, and we’re trying to get that happy median going. (Crew chief) Bob’s (Peck) doing a great job at getting this thing caught up, we stretched out the clutch a little bit, and kind of reeled it in, and changed some weight and balance, and it responded. It still lifted the front end up, and it knocked a couple holes out, but it was trucking. It was a good run, and we’re very happy with it.” King and Beckman have a long history together and the first round had several interesting story lines. Beckman’s son Jason designed the livery on King’s 12,000-horsepower Nitro Funny Car. Beckman is a consistent supporter of King throughout the season, and the Funny Car drivers discuss the ins and outs of racing one of the toughest classes in motorsports on a regular basis. King was looking to make a strong showing in front of his Chicago friends and family while Beckman was looking to impress his hometown-based sponsor Peak with another national event win in their backyard. “I love racing Jack, because he’s a true professional, and he’s one of my best friends out here,” said King. “Jack’s one of my big supporters, and getting to race him, it’s all fun and joking and up front, but when the helmets are on, he wants to beat me, and I want to beat him. The minute we pull the cars off at the top end, we hop out of the cars and give each other big hugs and congratulations. We were talking about how fun that run was.” Both cars took off the starting line together with King grabbing a head start off the line. As they crossed the halfway mark Beckman began to pull away. At the finish line it was Beckman getting the win light with a quicker 3.945 second run in front of a respectable 4.233 second run.“I kept them honest, at least,” said King proudly. “I did everything I could do. We made a clean run that looked good. I left on him. He is with John Force Racing, and Jack is phenomenal driver. That car outperformed us, and I’m not mad about it. We ran a good lap, we looked good, the car felt good. We’re chasing some balance issues with the chassis. It still hiked the front end pretty good, so it probably made for a good video watching it, and it was fun to drive. I didn’t see him until the very, very end, which was kind of cool.” Prior to race day King spent Saturday morning with fellow Chicago-based driver TJ Zizzo serving Nitro Cake pancakes to fans. The fan interaction opportunity was part of a busy Saturday for King who was also a featured guest on the NHRA stage with Hannah Rickards talking about his racing journey and plans for the weekend to the fans in the NHRA pit area. Between qualifying runs King was on the rope line signing hero cards and Competition Products catalogues for fans. “It’s very cool being here, first, for the friends and family, but also for the fans,” said King. “The whole experience about being the hometown guy. When I was in the car, I heard them in Q4 saying, ‘Oh, Chris is probably gonna pull out of the lanes.’ I was like hell no we aren’t pulling out. We’re putting on a show. Our friends, our family, first responders, everybody’s here to see these Funny Cars go down the track. We’re going down the track. That almost bit me in the rear end, but it was a hell of a pass, a hell of a save, and I’m hoping it added to my street cred with my driving capabilities all weekend. This thing’s been hiking up the front, making exciting videos, and dancing around and hauling. I hope that people notice that just because we’re a small team, we belong here.” Overall, the weekend was a strong start for King, and he will head back to his shop with solid race data and a positive attitude for the rest of the season. King and the Howards Cam/Competition Products Funny Car plan to compete at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio, June 26-28.

Spencer Hyde, the Canadian driver of the Head Contractors and Engineers Funny Car, continued to build consistency this weekend at the Gerber Collision & Glass Route 66 NHRA Nationals presented by PEAK. The reigning NHRA Rookie of the Year made his best pass of the season during qualifying, earning him a solid No. 5 qualifying position in a stacked Funny Car field. “Three out of our four qualifying runs were handedly in the 3.9-second range, and when you can consistently make those quick A-to-B runs, that gives both the driver and team a lot of confidence,” said Hyde. “Now that we’re seeing more consistency, I’m hoping more personal bests will also be around the corner.”Hyde’s best pass of the weekend came during the third round of qualifying, a 3.930 second, 329.26 mph pass that was the quickest of the session, earning him three valuable bonus points. This run was also both the quickest and fastest of his 2026 season thus far. “That run felt really good, from my perspective in the seat,” said Hyde. “I was confident even before I read the time slip that it was our best run of the year. It was great to see that I was right. That run also made me excited because I knew the conditions of that run would be like E1 on race day.” The Chicago area race is the sixth of the season and is the beginning of summer racing. It was obvious to all the race teams why Chicago is called The Windy City, as they all battled the windy conditions throughout the weekend. In the first round, Hyde was up against No. 12 qualifier Alexis DeJoria, a driver he had a 2-1 record against in previous eliminations. “I’ve faced Alexis now a few times, and I know what to expect when it comes to her routine,” said Hyde. “I knew it would be windy, but that was an obstacle everyone in the class was having to deal with. I was optimistic going into the run, but we unfortunately overpowered the track with the tune up, and Alexis was able to get the best of me, even though I left on her. Now that we have a tied record, I look forward to our next matchup.” DeJoria went on to runner-up, making this the sixth race of the season where the driver who eliminated Hyde went on to either win the race or runner-up in the finals. Despite the early race day exit, Hyde is thankful for the continued support of his sponsors, including Hyde Construction, OUTLAW Light Beer and the Caine Group. “Our sponsors deserved better than what we were able to execute today,” said Hyde. “But we did make a lot of progress from a data perspective with the car this weekend, and I am looking forward to turning on more win lights for them when we head to another new track in Maryland in a few weeks.” Hyde and the Head Contractors and Engineers Funny Car will be back in competition in two weeks at the NHRA Potomac Nationals presented by JEGS on May 29-31 at Maryland International Raceway. For this new national event, there will be two qualifying sessions on Friday, May 29 and two qualifying sessions on Saturday, May 30.

It has taken me several days to be able to post something like this on BANGshift. Posting it the day we found out about the loss of our great friend would have been the smart thing for page views and likes and all the crap we unfortunately are measured on, but it just didn’t feel right. Hell, this weekend I spoke about Kyle at Holley’s LSFest Texas and couldn’t do it without getting choked up. Yesterday I spoke with Matt Frost and our conversation about Kyle featured several cracks of my voice and his. Kyle was a wonderful person that we are all lucky to have had in our lives, at whatever level you knew him. Here’s what I posted up on Facebook a couple days after he left us. By now it seems like the only thing anyone in our world is talking about is the loss of our dear friend Kyle Loftis. I met Kyle in 2005, about 2 minutes after arriving at KCIR for Drag Week and had never heard of him, 1320Video, or the blue truck that Jim Neuenfeldt owned and was setting the streets of Omaha on fire with. He recognized my car from the Hot Rod Magazine it was featured in that came out the day before, and we became fast friends, because I’ve never met a stranger and Kyle was an awesome human being. We would spend the next 21 years at races of all kinds, on the wall, on the side of the road, in gas stations, at rest stops, and also at the occasion historic site. In 2005, 1320Video was just a hobby thing for Kyle and it would be years and years later before he’d give up his day job to do it full time. I started BANGshift in 2008, and Kyle and I often talked about how our businesses grew up together. We shared advice, laughed a lot, and cried some too. He was there for many epic moments in our racing lives and I can’t thank him enough for the amazing images and video that he and his team created over the years. He captured so many wonderful moments with my late wife Daphne Reynolds, and the two of them had many laughs together. In 2017, we found ourselves in the Neuro ICU in Kearney Nebraska because of brain swelling on the final day of Rocky Mountain Race Week. While we were in the hospital, with Daphne in extreme pain and me working on a plan to get her back home to her surgical team, we got word that the entire 1320Video crew was in the lobby of the hospital waiting for us. When they finally wheeled us out of the hospital, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Kyle handed Daphne a stuffed Snoopy they had picked up on the way. I’ll never forget that, or the photos and videos that he would share not long after she passed away in September. Kyle was a wonderful human being and my heart aches with his loss. I am so sorry for Matt, Fred, Witty, and the entire crew. And I’m so sorry for his family outside of racing. Right now I’m going to remember the last big hug I got from him and the genuine love and laughter that came along right after as we talked about my 2026 travel plans. God Speed my friend. You will be missed and we love you. The post Remembering Our Friend Kyle Loftis – The Man Behind 1320video Will Be Missed More Than He Ever Realized appeared first on BangShift.com.

If you are new around there then you might not know that we seriously dig Formula Off-Road racing here at BANGshift.com. This is high flying, loud, and intense racing that involves what look to be impossible hillclimbs, usually on giant courses made from pea gravel or something similar. It’s intense, the cars often end up upside down or rolling over down a hill. They end up rightside up on their own sometimes, but regardless the action is fun and kind of nuts. These drivers do some stuff that I’m not sure most people could. Check it out below. Video Description: Formula Offroad Iceland, Hella 2026!

Monster Trucks are awesome machines, and the things they are capable of doing are mind boggling at times. But as fast, and crazy, and high flying as they are, top speed is not the thing you think of when you think Monster Trucks. No, you think jumps and slap wheelies and back flips, hell even front flips, but even the famed Cyclones that they do in them aren’t all that fast. So when you see one go out and try to set a new world speed record for a monster truck, it is kind of special. I can tell you that last year at Moparty in Bowling Green Kentucky we had every intention of setting a new Monster Truck ET and speed record on the dragstrip, but the horsepower gods had other ideas. Regardless, it was impressive as hell to see this thing leave the starting line and carry the front wheels a bit. I was impressed for sure. But seeing on scream, and I mean scream, down the straight at Indianapolis Motor Speedway was something else. You have to see this record setting run. I can’t believe it went this straight!
