The National Speed Association’s Pro Stock Asphalt Snowmobile Series consists of several points events contested at the best IHRA and NHRA sanctioned tracks in the US and Canada.

NHRA license information...
NHRA requires a competition license for all riders running under 9.99 seconds in the ¼ mile.
Unlike IHRA, NHRA requires a physical exam every two years for all licensed riders to
ensure that the rider is healthy enough for competition.
If you do not have your NHRA competition license yet, it is easy to get. After obtaining
approval from your doctor (physical exam and completed medical form), bring the medical
form and license application to any NHRA track and perform the 6 required test runs. After
successful completion of all required runs, a track official will sign off on your application,
then you simply mail everything to your NHRA Division office.
Test runs are only required on the first application. Renewal riders are not required to
perform test runs again unless the license has lapsed for over one year.

Wahl Racing Asphalt Challenge 2009
2009 was the second year of the Wahl Racing
Asphalt Challenge series. This 3-race points
series was masterminded by Dave Wahl, owner
of Wahl Bros Racing Products. Wahl, who has
been racing snowmobiles for decades, has built
one of the most successful snowmobile
performance parts companies in the country.
The Wahl Challenge points battle came down to
the final race with Jay Pearl (Bangor
Motorsports) and Dan Meyer (Meyer Racing)
tied for first going into the third and final points race in the series. Meyer unfortunately
had a carburetor issue in the first round of the last race which gave Pearl the 2009 Wahl
Challenge Title. Pearl and Meyer both had tremendous success in the NSA Pro Stock
Asphalt series this season.
Wahl Asphalt Challenge finalists: 1st - Jay Pearl, Newport, ME (Bangor Motorsports) $800 2nd - Dan Meyer, Gray, ME (Meyer Racing) $400 3rd - Scott Marsh, Highland, NY (Big-E / Scooterboy Racing) $150 4th - Ken Lund, Brunswick, ME (Wise Man Racing) $150

Ken Lund was the first to receive his name on the Limited Edition Wahl Racing trophy as
the 2008 Champion in the Wahl Racing series. This incredible “traveling” trophy will now
have Jay Pearl’s name added to it and will travel from year to year with the winner from
each season’s Wahl Challenge.
A special thank you goes out to Dave Wahl and Wahl Bros Racing on their continued
support of the NSA Asphalt series.

Jay Pearl - 2009 NSA Points Champion
The veteran racer took on the challenge and stepped up his program, winning two of the
five NSA events in 2009 to claim his first NSA Points Championship. Pearl, with the help of
During the off season, Pearl decided to make some changes to his program. He had Phil
Stanley of PCS Performance build a new lightweight chromoly tube front end and new
custom pipes for his MRE 1000cc motor. The team added a new, lightweight hood and
came out swinging with a beautiful new stars and stripes paint job.
Pearl began racing in the NSA series in 2005 when it began. “We wanted to race against
the best and we found that with the NSA series”, said Pearl. “At any given event there are
a large number of teams that can contest for a win which forces us to remain focused.”
Pearl enjoys the family atmosphere also. “It is unique in the racing world to find a group
who gathers together with their competitors and families the way we do in the NSA.”
Congratulations to the entire Bangor Motorsports team on their Championship season.
