Proline Customers Lead the Field at the 2026 World Series of Pro Mod

The 2025/2026 World Series of Pro Mod at Bradenton Motorsports Park brought together one of the toughest 32-car Pro Mod fields in the sport. When qualifying wrapped up, the results were hard to ignore.

Qualifying at the World Series of Pro Mod is never routine. With 32 spots available and some of the quickest doorslammer teams in the world fighting for them, every hundredth matters. This year, Proline customers did more than just make the field, they defined it.

From the very top of the qualifying sheet, the tone was set early. Jason Harris stormed to a 3.555 to secure the No. 2 position, with Spencer Hyde right behind at 3.560 and Johnny Camp close in at 3.566. The front of the field was stacked with Proline-powered cars, and the trend did not slow as sessions continued.

Lyle Barnett, Derek Menholt, and Aaron Stanfield each landed on identical 3.568 passes, keeping the field tightly packed. Victor Alvarez followed with a 3.570, while Raymond Matos and Peter Norton both delivered 3.580 runs to anchor themselves solidly in the top half.

Randy Weatherford’s 3.583 kept him firmly in contention, and Billy Banaka added a 3.590 to the mix as the field tightened even further.

As qualifying pushed deeper and the bump spot came into focus, Proline customers continued to hold ground. Ned Dunphy went 3.591, Mike Bowman 3.592, and Greg Blevins Jr. 3.593. Brylon Holder posted a 3.598, while Travis Harvey and Rian Hayward both recorded 3.599 passes. Ryan Martin, Shawn Ellington, and Joey Martin all clocked 3.601 runs, and Robin Roberts secured his place in the field with a 3.602.

By the time qualifying closed, Proline customers occupied 21 of the 32 positions. The representation was not isolated to one portion of the ladder. It stretched from near the very top all the way to the final bump spot, reflecting both peak performance and the consistency required to survive one of the most competitive Pro Mod fields of the season.

At an event where simply earning a spot on the ladder is an achievement, that level of depth speaks for itself.

Carrying the Momentum Into Eliminations

The semifinal round featured four Proline-powered cars: Shawn Ellington, Randy Weatherford, Peter Norton, and Aaron Stanfield. At that point, regardless of how the final rounds unfolded, it was guaranteed that a Proline customer would take home the $150,000 winner’s check.

On one side of the ladder, Peter Norton and Randy Weatherford faced off in what became a winner take all semifinal for the Drag Illustrated Winter Series Pro Mod Championship. Norton delivered a .011 reaction time and ran 3.608 seconds to secure the win and lock up the championship in his first full season of Pro Mod competition.

On the other side, Aaron Stanfield advanced to set up an all Proline final against Norton.

Stanfield ran 3.576 at 210.83 MPH in the final round, edging Norton’s 3.585 at 210.57 by just .003 seconds to claim the $150,000 victory. Norton, meanwhile, left Bradenton as the Winter Series champion.

Depth Matters

The World Series of Pro Mod is not a race you stumble through. The margins are measured in thousandths, and qualifying alone is a battle. Having 21 of 32 spots in that field, along with a complete sweep of the Final Four, speaks to consistency across a wide range of teams and combinations.

Different drivers. Different tuners. Different cars.
One common denominator under the hood.

From the top of the qualifying sheet to the final round under the lights, Proline customers were in contention throughout the entire weekend. At an event defined by depth and pressure, that kind of representation across the field is significant.
