A New Duramax Powered Promod Hits The Dragstrip

- Chris Tobin

Coming off his 2018 Outlaw Diesel Super Series Pro Dragster Championship in his Du-ramax powered dragster, NGM Racing Owner Wade Moody set out on a new adventure with a new challenge. He decided to move into the highly competitive ProMod class for 2019 with a totally new race car.

He purchased a Jerry Bickel Race Cars ProMod chassis with a carbon fiber C7 Corvette body and built a billet Duramax 408 cu.in. twin-turbocharged and nitrous oxide ingesting diesel burning engine to propel the car down the track. While some doubted that his NGM Diesel Race Engines Duramax engine could deliver the power needed to make a heavier ProMod car competitive against the other ProMod racers. But never one to stand down from a challenge Moody and his team went to work spinning wrenches, fabricating parts, building, assembling and wiring the C7 in hopes of taking the 2019 ODSS season by storm.
