The 2021 Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals
July 30th through August 1st at the Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
California Pest Management is proud to announce their official sponsorship of NHRA nitro Funny Car racer Alex Miladinovich with his M12/Hot For Teacher Racing team and Tim Wilkerson’s LRS Mustang Top Fuel Funny Car.
Top Fuel cars are among the fastest-accelerating machines in the world. Top Fuel dragsters are often referred to as the “kings of the sport” and with good reason. They are capable of covering the dragstrip in less than 3.7 seconds at more than 330 mph. Funny Cars are similar to their Top Fuel counterparts but with a shorter wheelbase and a carbon-fiber body that loosely resembles a production-based automobile, Funny Cars can run in the 3.8-second range and are capable of speeds in excess of 330 mph. Funny Cars are powered by the same supercharged and fuel-injected 500-inch engines as Top Fuel dragsters.
Jim Harmon is the owner of California Pest Management and a longtime race fan. Mr. Harmon usually sponsors Peter Russo’s Funny Car. This year the Russos are stuck in their native Australia and will not be present to participate in the 2021 Winternationals. This year Miladinovich and fellow Funny Car racer Tim Wilkerson will both benefit in Pomona with sponsorship from La Verne, CA. based California Pest Management.
“It’s not a big-money deal, but we appreciate the support of people like Jim. He just saw some of the things we’ve been doing and hit me up. Every time we go out to the track, we get something more to get us to that next one. We’re still fishing for more money to keep us in the game, and have people like Aggretek and RedShirtFriday.com helping us along the way. We’re just gonna keep chugging along.” said Miladinovich.
