Dallas Glenn, the reigning NHRA Pro Stock world champion, is set to make his Pro Modified debut at the U.S. Street Nationals at Bradenton Motorsports Park, running from January 22-25. Glenn will pilot a screw-blown ’63 Corvette owned by Jim and Annie Whiteley. His primary goal remains defending his Pro Stock title, but the chance to drive in one of drag racing’s fastest classes arose towards the end of the previous season.

Glenn first discussed the opportunity with Whiteley, who wanted to give him experience in a Pro Mod. This weekend’s event aligns with KB Titan Racing’s future plans to enter Pro Mod racing in 2026. Although Glenn has been preparing, including recent testing at Bradenton, he admits the transition from Pro Stock to Pro Mod feels manageable, noting the driving style is simpler, requiring fewer shifts and allowing him to focus on driving.

While Glenn emphasizes his commitment to Pro Stock, he remains open to future Pro Mod opportunities on off weekends. He acknowledges the challenge of qualifying in a competitive field, with over 80 entrants vying for 32 spots in recent events. Confident in the car’s performance and his driving skills, he aims to qualify and enjoy the racing experience, aware that anything beyond that will be a bonus.
