READING, PA -- Back-to-back world champion Erica Enders notched one of her biggest elimination round-wins of the year Sunday, beating title contender Bo Butner wire-to-wire in the opening session of the 32nd annual Dodge NHRA Nationals. "To go out there and get this Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge Dart a round-win at the Dodge Nationals was exciting," Enders said. "The uphill battle this entire season has been for us continues, but with only one run on this racetrack throughout qualifying, we really had a challenge before us [...]

READING, PA -- In between what has seemed to be a never-ending smattering of rain at Maple Grove Raceway, there were moments of really good drag racing, and reigning world champion Erica Enders is convinced she could have made a big move if she was given another chance. But in the end, she only got one shot in her Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge Dart and had to settle for the No. 9 spot on the qualifying grid. "Dang it, we wanted another run," Enders said. "It [...]

READING, PA -- Two-time Pro Stock champion Erica Enders is hoping for a little Mopar magic during the Dodge NHRA Nationals this weekend at Maple Grove Raceway. Enders posted her best qualifying effort of the season at the Mopar Mile-High Nationals in Denver earlier this season, grabbing the No. 2 spot. She hopes for similar success at another Dodge-sponsored race, this time in Pennsylvania. "At our last Dodge race this year, we had our best qualifying performance," Enders said. "Hopefully that translates to Reading." Enders [...]

ST. LOUIS, MO -- Erica Enders raced to the Pro Stock final at Gateway Motorsports Park as part of her run to the 2015 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series championship. There likely will be no such similar run this season after Enders was knocked out in the first round of the AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals. In her first season running the Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge, Enders has struggled to maintain her stellar performance from 2014-15, when she swept to back-to-back titles. "We are absolutely [...]

ST. LOUIS, MO -- There's no quit in Erica Enders and her Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge team. Despite missing the race in Charlotte last week, the two-time Pro Stock champions battled back to qualify No. 11 for the AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals on Saturday at Gateway Motorsports Park. "They are amazing," Enders said. "They work really hard. It's frustrating and disheartening to see how hard they work and not have it translate to the scoreboard. At this point, this year is a letdown and we [...]

ST. LOUIS, MO — A season ago, Pro Stock superstar Erica Enders was putting a stranglehold on her second straight Mello Yello world championship with a runner-up finish at the annual AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals, which takes place again this weekend at Gateway Motorsports Park. It was her fourth consecutive final-round showing and ninth of 11 she would amass during the year. This year it’s a different story. Enders once again is part of the Countdown to the Championship, but this time she’s 10th [...]

CHARLOTTE, NC -- Reigning Pro Stock champion Erica Enders began her march to a second straight world title last year with a convincing victory at the NHRA Carolina Nationals. This year, she hit a season low, failing to qualify for the first time since the second Pomona (Calif.) race in 2010. "That's all the way back to when I drove for the late Jim Cunningham," Enders said. "It's no secret, this year has been a struggle for us. Someone just asked me how you bounce [...]

CHARLOTTE, NC -- One year ago, Pro Stock racer Erica Enders arrived at the first race of NHRA's Countdown to the Championship playoffs as the No. 1 seed, having won six regular-season national events, including the previous two stops in Brainerd, Minn., and Indianapolis. This year, as Enders brings her Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge Dart back to zMax Dragway for the ninth annual NHRA Carolina Nationals, things are much different. Her dominating run to back-to-back championships hangs in the balance as she finds herself a distant [...]

Coughlin got some good news in the second round when Alex Laughlin lost, landing Coughlin in the Countdown as well. "This is pretty [...]

INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- A big part of two-time Pro Stock champion Erica Enders' success is the ability to see the positive in everything and then make the most of that optimism. Enders qualified her Elite Motorsports/Mopar Dodge in the No. 14 qualifying spot for Monday eliminations at the U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway. That may be disheartening to some, but Enders is the defending U.S. Nationals champion and knows race day is a new day. "This is our worst qualifying position in a long [...]
