Bruce Boland returns to PMRA winner’s circle in style at Canadian Nitro Nationals
PMRA Pro Modified champion notches first win of the season at TMP’s Cayuga Dragway over the weekend
CAYUGA, ONTARIO (June 24, 2026) – The champion is back.
Bruce Boland of Hamilton, Ontario, returned to his winning ways, capturing the Pro Modified Racing Association race during the Canadian Nitro Nationals at the Cayuga Dragway of Toronto Motorsports Park.
A three-time PMRA champion, this win was the first for Boland and his 1941 Willys Pro Modified in 2012.
The win was also his series-leading tenth in PMRA competition since the series began racing in 2005.
“This was a perfect weekend,” Boland mentioned after the final round. “We had some clutch issues earlier this year, but that’s all straightened out, and we ran the same tune-up this weekend and all went well.”

CAYUGA, ONTARIO (July 5, 2026) – He only came to test out some new equipment, but Pro Modified racer Kenny Lang ended up winning the Pro Modified Racing Association race during the Canadian Nitro Nationals at the Cayuga Dragway of Toronto Motorsports Park.
The event was the third in the 2011 PMRA schedule.
And the win was not only Lang’s first in PMRA competition, it was his first in the Pro Modified series.
“We had a good day,” Lang said after his win. “We just came here to test a new converter, started picking away, and stayed with our game plan.”
Lang, from Grand Pointe, Manitoba, is a regular competitor in the Get Screened America Pro Modified Series which competes at NHRA National events. Earlier this year Lang acquired major sponsorship from Summit Racing Equipment, a marketer of high-performance parts and accessories. Lang made history in 2010 at the NHRA Gatornationals in Florida as the first competitor to win an NHRA Pro Modified event and be awarded the coveted “Wally” trophy.
