Dominator Late Model Nose Legal for DIRTcar and World of
Outlaws
UMP (December 21, 2011) - DIRTcar announced today that Dominator
Race Products has become the exclusive molded plastic nose supplier for
DIRTcar sanctioned UMP Modified competition, effective immediately.
Dominator has made a multi-year commitment to support the UMP Modified and
UMP Limited Modified divisions, including the Summit Racing Equipment
Modified Nationals. Modified competitors will continue to have the option of
running hand-fabricated aluminum noses.
“We are excited to welcome Dominator to our family of partners,” said Sam
Driggers, Director of UMP DIRTcar Racing. “They recently approached us with
plans to develop a new molded plastic modified nose and we worked with them
through the design process to ensure that it met our rules and provided our
teams with a viable alternative to aluminum noses. We are very pleased with
the result and believe that our racers will be as well.”
The Dominator modified nose is available for purchase in kit form or as
components (left, right and center), and is available in 7 colors including
– red, white, blue, black, yellow, orange, & purple. Kits will be available
through 250+ dealers across the USA.
DIRTcar UMP and World of Outlaws officials have also worked with Dominator
to make adjustments to the Dominator late model nose, most notably the
removal of the triangles along the leading edge. Dominator late model noses
without the triangles are approved for use in all DIRTcar UMP Late Model and
World of Outlaws Late Model sanctioned competition in 2012. Late Model
competitors who attend events with older noses and choose not to remove the
triangles may be subject to a 25 pound weight penalty.
“This announcement should put to rest much of the recent speculation about
whether or not Dominator nose and flare products would be legal for the 2012
season for UMP DIRTcar and World of Outlaws competitors,” said Bentley Shaw,
President of Dominator Race Products. “In particular we are very excited
about the feedback we have been receiving from competitors who have seen our
new modified nose. We believe that it maintains the aggressive look of a
traditional modified, while giving competitors an easy to mount, and more
durable alternative to aluminum.”
