IH ProMod Q1 Results: Street Outlaws Drivers Show Strong Early Runs

The first round of qualifying at the IH ProMod event is in the books, and several familiar Street Outlaws names made a strong first impression. While these results are still unofficial, they give us a good look at who’s got their combinations dialed in for the $125,000-to-win showdown.

Leading the charge was Kallee Mills, who’s been on fire with her new Pro Mod. She stopped the clocks at 3.65 seconds, continuing the momentum she’s shown over the past few races. In fact, Cali has qualified in the top two at the last three Pro Mod events she’s attended — proof that her team has that car figured out and ready to win.

Right behind her was Robin Roberts, laying down a clean 3.69 in his brand-new Harts Charger–powered Pro Mod. This combo has been making noise in the pits lately, and for good reason — Roberts has already snagged the No. 1 qualifier spot at the last two events he’s entered with it. The Harts setup is clearly making serious power, maybe even more than the ProCharger and screw blower combinations currently in play. If that continues, we could see the rule makers take a closer look at balancing the field.

Scott Taylor also had a solid start with “Cheeto,” putting up a 3.71 on his very first pass of the weekend. Considering it was Q1, that’s a strong sign for what’s to come. Meanwhile, Disco Dean kept things steady with his NPK-legal Firebird, clocking in at 3.74.

One of the more interesting moments came when Kye Kelley and Brad Eglian ran side-by-side. Both drivers had to pedal, with Kai crossing at 3.86 and Brad at 3.96. Neither has shown their full hand yet, so Q2 should be worth watching closely — especially for Kai, whose car has the potential to run at the front but has been chasing consistency this season.

Not everyone got a clean pass in. Larry Larson didn’t make it down the track in Q1, so we’ll have to wait and see what he brings in the next round.

It’s also worth noting that Jimmy Taylor has rolled into this event with a brand-new twin-turbo Pro Mod. He’s already been in the 3.50s earlier this week, so he’s definitely a driver to keep on your radar as eliminations approach.

With multiple Street Outlaws names running strong times right out of the gate — and a mix of blower, turbo, and centrifugal setups — this is shaping up to be a weekend full of drama, strategy, and potentially some surprise rule chatter. The conditions aren’t perfect for every combo, but that’s part of what makes these Pro Mod races so unpredictable.

One thing’s certain: if Q1 was any indication, the fight for $125K is going to be intense.
