With the 2010 season about to start for the West Coast Outlaw Pro Mod Association, teams are getting ready for the Funny Car Fever at Sacramento Raceway Park, April 23 - 24, the first race of the year. Sacramento Raceway has also had some track updates done to the starting line surface over the last few weeks and many racers say that it is the nicest that Sacramento Raceway’s track/starting line has ever looked.

With the unpredictable weather this winter in California it has been a struggle for most teams to test. Drivers such as Rod Burbage, Jay Diedrich, Marc Meadors, Scott Bailey, Bret Williamson, Dan Myers, Tim Henry and Michael Irwin gained a reprieve and if the testing that was done is any indication to how the 2010 year will be for the West Coast Outlaw Pro Mod guys, it should be a great year of racing for the group.
