Stand Tall: A how-to on tall valve covers
As we make our Mustangs go faster we make changes to the valvetrain that at some point necessitate taller than stock valve covers to fit. Some like the "racy" look of taller valve covers but to the hard core enthusiast they serve a bigger purpose. The most common reason to use tall valve covers is to be able to fit aftermarket roller rockers and valvetrain stabilizers more commonly known as stud girdles.

[12/02/2002] NMRA Introduces First Ever Pro 5.0 Entrant Support Program

By: -


After an extensive evaluation of its NMRA Pro 5.0 drag racing class, ProMedia Events has announced today that it will create an unprecedented Entrant Support Program in an effort to increase class participation in this top-tier category. In addition, the NMRA Ford Drag Racing Series administration is currently working to develop a five-year long-term strategic plan for the Pro 5.0 class direction that will build a firm foundation for the class.

"The NMRA is the preeminent street legal drag racing series in America," ProMedia''s Charlie Harmon states, "and we realize that it is critical for the NMRA and Ford drag racing to grow this headlining class. This program is designed to retain current racing teams and attract new participants in the NMRA Pro 5.0 class in 2003 and beyond."

Beginning with the 2003 racing season, the NMRA Pro 5.0 Entrant Support Program affirms NMRA''s commitment to invest in its racing teams and to provide them increased guaranteed exposure and marketing opportunities.

NMRA''s Entrant Support Program, which is limited to 16 teams, is available to current Pro 5.0 racers as well as new entrants. Pro 5.0 competitors will be eligible for the program by committing to attend at least six of eight NMRA 2003 national events. The program is provided at no charge to the entrants, although entry fees are required to be pre-paid for the year. The goal of this program is to help Pro 5.0 teams increase marketability and help them increase the value of their investment and lower the cost structure of competing in this class.

Complete details of the NMRA Pro 5.0 Entrant Support Program are included below. Competitors interested in more information on the NMRA Pro 5.0 program should contact ProMedia Event Division Director Charlie Harmon at charmon@promediapub.com
