After record-breaking 2007 season, the Pro Top Outlaw Series is looking forward to what will be their 6th year of competition next year.  The series that was organized by Ron Bales and Tom Mueller will begin 2008 under new management when back-to-back series champion Cincinnati native Phil Esz will assume ownership of the organization.

The series which showcases the talents of some of the best dragster, funny car, pro mod  and altered drivers in the Midwest already has 8 tracks committed to running events next year and there are more still in the works.  The 2007 season was the finest year yet for the series that boasted record-breaking fields and was featured on Inside Drag Racing with Bob Frey, the voice of NHRA, announcing.  In 2008, they plan to continue to capitalize on the momentum bringing in new and exciting benefits to members and the fans who fill the stands every weekend.

Next year, in an effort to continue to grow their fan base and membership, the series will race in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana and Michigan remaining within a 300 mile radius of the home base in Cincinnati, Ohio.  They have also made changes to the rules including allowing the 1471 blower into competition.  There are more opportunities than ever for racers to get involved with this growing organization, so be sure to check out the complete list of rules on their website to see where your combination fits into the picture.
