For years I have discussed the importance of bringing back the entertainment value when it comes to drag racing and for some it falls on deaf ears, but for others like the Bader Family and their track, Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio it is all about the entertainment and putting on one hell of a show for the fans.

If you follow Pro Mod on a regular basis, you will most likely think that it’s just a bunch of new or old Camaro bodies toss on some tubing. Now, if you are more than a casual fan, and watch series like Mid-West Pro Mod, PDRA, or NMCA, you will see a much larger variety of high performing hotrods that don’t fit that mold.

As most of you know, a professional photographer can become very gear happy and get into this phase where they feel the need to have the newest and “greatest” gear on the market.
