Randell Reid made the long tow to Memphis for the third stop in the PDRA eighth-mile doorslammer tour and was rewarded with his first Pro Extreme win of his career at the inaugural Professional Drag Racers Association Memphis Drags on May 24.

Other professional class winners included Pro Nitrous racer Jason Harris winning his third-straight and Pro Stock shoe John Pluchino, who won his second Extreme Pro Stock victory. Midwest outlaw Pro Mod hitter Eddie Rogers and his tuner, stepdaughter Amanda, got their first national event win competing in the extremely tough Pro Boost class. The two-wheel title went to veteran Eric McKinney with his first win of 2014 in Pro Extreme Motorcycle.

Cheyenne Stanley recorded his second PDRA Top Sportsman doorslammer win this season and Jeff Mandell scored in the very quick and fast Top Dragster class. Jake Thurwell and Mia Schultz were winners in the Jr. Dragster classes.
