Only the best of the best will participate in the 2013 Summit Racing Equipment Tournament of Champions presented by AMSOIL.

It is the very backbone of the International Hot Rod Association and in 2013 the racers of the Summit Racing Equipment Pro-Am Tour presented by AMSOIL will be featured more prominently than ever before with increased competition and more prestige for winning on the Pro-Am level.

The International Hot Rod Association’s World Headquarters is expanding for the first time in years as the sanctioning body prepares for a massive two-day move during the first weekend in December.

Over the past 10 years the fastest growing and most lucrative grassroots drag racing program in the sport has been the International Hot Rod Association’s Summit Racing SuperSeries.

With a brand new season almost upon us and a few changes on hand for the 2012 racing year, the International Hot Rod Association decided to simplify things and provide a quick and easy look at what classes will be run at each event during the year.

Hey race fans, check out all of the action at this weekend’s Palm Beach Nitro Jam and go behind the scenes at all of the events on the 2011 schedule only on the Nitro Jam Facebook and YouTube sites.

Nitro Jam is now offering you the chance to see great racing and a spectacular show all from the best seat in the house - the one you bring with you!

International Hot Rod Association® (IHRA®) announced today that AMSOIL INC. has signed a multi-year agreement to be the official and exclusive oil of IHRA, Nitro Jam®, Thunder Jam®, and presenting sponsor of all IHRA Summit Racing Equipment sportsman programs.

The multi-year agreement marks the company’s first partnership with the IHRA. AMSOIL already exhibits a strong presence in the IHRA sportsman community -its products power some of the top racers in the sport today. Partnering with the IHRA and all of its Summit Racing Equipment-backed programs, including the Pro-Am Tour, SuperSeries, Team Finals, Tournament of Champions, Sportsman Spectacular and Junior Dragster programs, gives AMSOIL a great opportunity to showcase its industry-leading synthetic lubricants for the drag racing community.



“The International Hot Rod Association sponsorship helps give us a strong presence in the drag racing and hot-rod community,” said AMSOIL Race Program Manager Jeremy Meyer. “Sportsman racing is the backbone of the IHRA and its racers and fans are some of the most loyal, hard-working people in motorsports. We look forward to working with the IHRA and its extensive lineup of racing programs and providing the racers and fans a high-quality product and great service that they won’t find anywhere else in racing.”

In addition to being the Official Oil of IHRA, Nitro Jam and Thunder Jam, AMSOIL will serve as the presenting sponsor of all IHRA Summit Racing Equipment sportsman programs and will have a strong presence at many of the top IHRA events throughout the year, including the revolutionary Sportsman Spectacular program, individual Team Finals and Pro-Am events and the year-end Summit Racing Equipment Tournament of Champions.

 “The rich history of AMSOIL and the company’s eagerness to be more involved in sportsman drag racing makes them a perfect partner for some of the biggest and fastest growing sportsman programs in the sport today,” said IHRA President Aaron Polburn. “AMSOIL has a top-notch track record as a partner in the world of motorsports, including partnerships with the leading off-road racing series and drivers. Now AMSOIL brings that expertise to the world of drag racing and we very much look forward to what this partnership brings to the table.”
