The Mid-West Drag Racing Series (MWDRS) enters a new chapter as John Sears becomes the Tech Director for 2025 and beyond. Known for his ability to bring balance and fairness to the track, Sears is tasked with simplifying the rulebook and ensuring every racer has a fair shot.
MWDRS owner and promoter Keith Haney shared the story behind the decision. “After long conversations in the off-season, and his increasingly busy schedule, Lonnie Grimm and I felt this was a move in the right direction. We want to thank Lonnie for his support and guidance, since day one, with the series and look forward to seeing him at races across the country.”
Sears, a seasoned expert with a track record of creating balanced rules for events like those in MWDRS, is ready to bring his vision to life. Haney expressed confidence in the new hire: “John oversees rule sets with classes and events very similar to the Mid-West Drag Racing Series. John has been in the game for a long time and has a great history of fair and balanced pairings across multiple classes.”
Sears’ first priority is clear: take a fresh look at the rulebook and make it work better for racers. “I am excited to be a part of the Mid-West Drag Racing Series in this capacity. With my work on other events and series, I look forward to creating a rules package that provides parity across the board for racers currently in the series, as well as those looking to attend,” he said.
The stakes are higher than ever with increased payouts for Pro Mod in 2025, and Sears is determined to ensure the competition stays fair. “The preliminary rules package tightens up a few things, based on my experience at other events, but still provides opportunities for the current racers. With the increased payouts for Pro Mod in 2025, it’s never been more important for everyone to have a fair playing field.”
