Get Screened America, the sponsor of the NHRA's Pro Mod series, will test to see just how much the Pro Mod action really raises a fan's blood pressure, and will also offer healthscreening tests that include blood glucose testing, body mass index tests, eye vision exams, a skin cancer scan to scan faces for potential damage under the skin, and a special health risk assessment kiosk where fans can register basic health information and qualify to win a 'Wii' and 'Wii Fit.'  
"We are pleased to present Pro Mods to NHRA fans and be a part of the best drag racing anywhere," said Roger Burgess, CEO of ProCare Rx. "Get Screened America offers healthcare education and promotes healthcare screening and testing. We feel NHRA fans are greatly benefiting from the information and the reminders we're providing during the Pro Mod events."
 
Get Screened America's mission is to educate Americans of the importance of health screening and testing and to provide access whenever possible to simple, free tests and screenings for different health conditions at selected sporting venues. Screenings may include tests for diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and certain cancers, while always stressing early testing for colorectal, breast and other invasive conditions.
