By: Werner Communications

INDIANAPOLIS (January 13, 2025) — The Professional Racers and Owners Organization (PRO) today announced that Boninfante Friction will join the growing list of industry leaders who are sponsoring the SCAG Power Equipment PRO Superstar Shootout, February 6-8, 2025, at Bradenton Motorsports Park. The family-owned business, Boninfante Friction, started in 1988, produces superior quality parts as the world leader in friction clutch manufacturing for the motorsports market. Top Fuel, Funny Car and Pro Stock competitors will be using Boninfante clutch discs and components to chase win lights and records during the three-day specialty race. 

“Our sport has been built on manufacturers and suppliers like Boninfante Friction,” said Scott Woodruff, PRO Board Member. “When you look at the teams competing at the SCAG PRO Superstar Shootout, you’ll see a Boninfante decal on their race car. That kind of universal support is critical to our growth and having them involved with this event is a perfect match.”

Qualifying Sessions will begin on Thursday and continue into Friday. On Saturday all the Top Fuel, Funny Cars and Pro Stock teams will hit the track. The power created by the crew chiefs tuning Top Fuel, Funny Car and Pro Stock cars is managed by Boninfante Friction parts to set record elapsed times. Boninfante creates custom clutches for a vast array of applications, from street cars to full race clutches for NHRA Top Fuel dragsters and nitro Funny Cars. 

Boninfante Friction has taken every opportunity to support racers and grow the sport at every level. Having them as part of this specialty race is a big deal for the teams they work with and the sport overall.
