JDM Engineering, a leading tuner in the late-model Ford segment, has stepped up to sponsor a new NMRA class called "Super Stang" that will run at four select events in 2008 – Detroit, MI (June 13-15), Atco, NJ (August 8-10), Columbus, OH (August 29-31) and Bowling Green, KY (October 2-5). JDM Super Stang will be a declared index-style eliminator open to ’05 and later Mustangs (S197). Super Stang will be a part of the NMRA’s all-cash contingency program and will have a points chase with the world champion crowned at NMRA’s awards ceremony at the PRI show in December ’08.

"We are excited to work with JDM Engineering to introduce a new class designed to attract late-model Ford Mustang owners to the track," said Charlie Harmon, president of the NMRA. "Super Stang will be the NMRA’s first index-style class that provides an easy-to-follow format for new and experienced Ford drag racers. The ’05 Mustang reignited the muscle car segment and the NMRA will be the series that showcases the best in late-model Ford performance."
