NADM/DIESEL Motorsports 2015 Schedule set for an exciting year!

Press Release: February 1, 2015

NADM/DIESEL Motorsports 2015 Schedule set for an exciting year!




National Association of Diesel Motorsports (shortened to DIESEL Motorsports 3 years ago) is in its 8th year of providing Sanctioned diesel sled pulling, and drag racing events across the United States.



In 2001 none of the tracks (NHRA or IHRA) or pulling associations would let diesel trucks run or compete in classes. The first sanctioned diesel event in the country was Thunder in Muncie near Muncie Indiana in June of 2001. That event is still one of the top events in the country in the original locations hosted by DIESEL Motorsports.

As many of you know diesel motor sports and NADM has grown quickly with events now all over the country. Many state, regional clubs/associations and diesel promoters are putting diesel events in many different rural towns. DIESEL Motorsports has tried to present a uniform set of rules to include all diesel trucks and classes across the US so not to favor anyone’s products or shops. With safety in mind for all classes we welcome all diesel vehicles.

For the first time DIESEL Motorsports will be featuring Clean Diesel Classes in sled pulling and a TDI/Cruze Clean Diesel Class at three events. Watch for details surrounding these new additions and as always Semi trucks are welcome for Mothers® Polish Show-N-Shine and sled pulling.

Flowmaster Performance Exhaust returns as the VIP Title sponsor this year among many others who have been with us for many years. Flowmaster diesel exhaust with the Patented Pro Series muffler is the only muffler that will cut the drone out in your cab plus add performance at the wheels. We ask that when purchasing equipment for your diesels please keep them in mind, they are the reason we can put on these events.





O’Reilly Auto Part Stores joins as Series Sponsor for our diesel only drag racing and sled pulling. Many of you know these stores since they are in your local towns, please stop by and pickup any sponsor’s products from them. Watch for details about product rebates and event discount tickets at your local O’Reilly stores.

2015 is a NEW Year - start building for the future! DIESEL Motorsports

This week starts a NEW year for all of us in the diesel community. What is your goals for a better year?

DIESEL Motorsports is planning the events right now and we plan on making the existing ones even bigger than they were last year. There will be a few new ones in some new areas along with some new series races and pulls.



It's always about building the sport using our existing budget and sponsorship, if you want to see the sport grow in your area then get involved and call us. Yes, you can start smaller events in your area along with working with local diesel shops or tracks.

Keep in mind safety and insure your events, no one wants a liability and what we do seems safe it is still racing/pulling which is dangerous if not done properly.

Yes, I had more tracks and facilities come to us during the PRI Show and ask about putting on diesel events. Much more than the past years which tells me that the sport is catching on with the mainstream media.

Watch our web site for new events starting the end of January and adding to them all through the summer months.

If you like the diesel lifestyle that has been built then support it with your involvement.
