Lizzy Musi's Bonnie Camaro Racing in PDRA Pro Street: A Tribute to a Legend

Hey there, Street Outlaws fans! Today, we’re diving into some exciting news about Lizzy Musi’s iconic Bonnie Camaro making a return to the drag racing scene in the PDRA (Professional Drag Racers Association) Pro Street class. If you’ve been following the world of Street Outlaws and drag racing, you know that this car holds a special place in the hearts of many fans. Let’s break down the significance of this move, and why it’s a fitting tribute to Lizzy Musi’s legacy.

A New Chapter for the Bonnie Camaro

First things first: it’s official. Lizzy Musi’s Bonnie Camaro will be racing in PDRA Pro Street, with Tommy Franklin behind the wheel. For those who may not be familiar, Lizzy had a close relationship with the Franklin family, making this a meaningful connection as Tommy takes the reins of this nitrous-powered beast. Lizzy’s passing earlier this year was a massive loss to the drag racing community, but seeing this car back on the track is a powerful way to honor her memory.


A Dominant Force in Drag Racing

Lizzy was known for her competitive spirit and raw talent behind the wheel. The Bonnie Camaro, in particular, became one of the most recognized and feared cars in No Prep Kings (NPK) racing. It was one of the last nitrous-powered cars standing, holding its own in a field dominated by turbo and blower cars. And while Lizzy raced in both PDRA and NPK, it’s clear that NPK held a special place in her heart.

This Bonnie Camaro isn’t just any car. In fact, it’s the second iteration of the Bonnie, a newer, lighter, and more advanced version that Lizzy started racing in Season 6 of NPK. This upgraded Bonnie made waves last season, winning three races and proving itself as a top contender. It’s a fitting tribute to see this car back in action, even if it’s not in NPK – for now.


The Legacy of Lizzy Musi

Let’s not forget what made Lizzy such a formidable competitor. She wasn’t just fast – she was smart, strategic, and fearless. In NPK, she was one of the few racers who could consistently challenge the dominance of boosted cars. In fact, Lizzy is one of only three racers in NPK history to win three races in a row, a feat that solidified her status as one of the best. Alongside heavy hitters like Kai Kelly and Ryan Martin, Lizzy made her mark and left a legacy that’s impossible to forget.


And it wasn’t just her driving that made her special – it was her connection with her team. Together, they built and tuned a car that could win any race, on any given day. That’s why no one wanted to line up against Lizzy Musi in NPK. Whether it was the car, her skill, or the team behind her, she was always a threat.

What’s Next for the Bonnie Camaro?

While Tommy Franklin will be piloting the Bonnie Camaro in PDRA Pro Street, many fans (myself included!) are hoping to see this car back in NPK at some point in the future. Whether or not Lizzy’s family decides to bring the Bonnie back to NPK remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure: Lizzy loved NPK racing. She thrived in the competition, and her absence has been felt by fans and racers alike.


In the meantime, it’s great to see the Bonnie Camaro back on the track in PDRA. Tommy Franklin is no stranger to winning, and with Lizzy’s car in his hands, you can bet it’ll be a force to be reckoned with in Pro Street. It’s a fitting tribute to one of the greatest racers we’ve ever seen, and a chance for fans to see this legendary car in action once again.


Wrapping Up

Lizzy Musi may be gone, but her legacy lives on through the Bonnie Camaro and the impact she made on the sport of drag racing. Whether it’s in PDRA, NPK, or any other racing series, we’ll be cheering for this car every step of the way.


We’ll be keeping a close eye on how Tommy Franklin and the Bonnie Camaro perform in PDRA Pro Street, and who knows? Maybe one day we’ll see it back where it belongs in NPK, tearing up the competition just like Lizzy would have wanted.
