The World Series of Pro Mod is one of the toughest battlegrounds in drag racing, and Street Outlaws stars Scott Taylor and Mike Bowman are making waves as they go head-to-head with some of the baddest Pro Mods in the game. With over 80 cars competing for a massive $150,000 prize, every round is an all-out war on the track.

Scott Taylor Takes Down Mark Mickie
Scott Taylor is proving he’s got what it takes to win as he advances to the third round after a hard-fought victory over Mark Mickie. Mickie, who came into the race as the number one qualifier, took out Kai Kelly in the first round and was looking strong. But when it came time to face Taylor, things didn’t go as planned. Mickie got the jump at the tree but shook the tires, opening the door for Taylor to lay down a killer pass.
Scott pulled off a wheelstand, running an impressive 3.71 at 203 mph. Even though Mickie didn’t make a clean run, a win is a win, and Taylor is now in the final eight of the most stacked Pro Mod race of the year.
Mike Bowman Also Making Moves
Another familiar face from Street Outlaws, Mike Bowman, is making his presence known as well. Bowman, a former winner of the World Series of Pro Mod back in 2017, took out Em Denan with an insane pass—going 3.62 at 219 mph. That’s serious speed, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see Bowman make a deep run in this event.

Can Taylor Take It All the Way?
Scott Taylor has been on fire all weekend, but he’s got some serious competition ahead. To keep advancing, he’s going to have to step it up even more. In the first round, he ran a 3.61—an extremely impressive number. But moving forward, he’s going to have to be in the 3.50s to have a real shot at taking home the big check.
With names like Cannon still in the mix—who just won a championship—Taylor is facing some of the toughest racers in the business. But if he can keep that front end planted and make consistent, fast passes, there’s no doubt he has a shot at winning it all.

Street Outlaws in the Hunt for $150,000
With the competition dwindling down to just eight cars, Taylor and Bowman are carrying the Street Outlaws banner in this stacked field. The World Series of Pro Mod is no joke, and winning here solidifies a driver as one of the best in the business.
Kye Kelley won the first edition of this event, and now Taylor has a chance to bring home the win in the latest showdown. Can he pull it off? It won’t be easy, but he’s got the car and the talent to make it happen.
