“ Having grown up playing every imaginable racing video game , it ’ s hard to adequately explain how cool it is to see the ‘ Jack & the Green Stock ’ ’ 69 Camaro that Spencer Hyde won the World Series of Pro Mod within the newly updated No Limit Drag Racing 2.0 mobile video game ,” says Wes Buck , Drag Illustrated Founder and Editorial Director .
“ Zach , Paul , and the whole gang at No Limit
are real enthusiasts that are passionate about the sport of drag racing , and it shows in the effort , energy , and attention to detail they put into their game ,” Buck continues . “ In my opinion , No Limit is the best mobile drag racing game ever , and in the discussion for best drag racing game of all time .”
“ Having Spencer Hyde involved means a lot to No Limit Drag Racing , as it brings in a talented and accomplished drag racer who adds authenticity and excitement to the game ,” says Paul Donahue , an owner of No Limit Drag Racing . “ We recognized the significance of involving Spencer because his skills and achievements make him a standout figure in the drag racing community . His inclusion enhances the game ’ s realism and appeal .”
The game allows players to experience the thrills of drag racing with full customization , intense multiplayer competition , and plenty of opportunities to upgrade and tune their virtual rides .
“ Perhaps most importantly , this allows us to introduce WSOPM to the many , many young people playing this game that may otherwise know nothing about it ,” says Buck . “ Plus , we ’ ve established a revenue-sharing program that puts money directly into the pocket of Spencer Hyde , on top of the $ 102,000 he got from us earlier this year .”
Spencer Hyde , who claimed the prestigious title of the 2023 World Series of Pro Mod champion , captured the hearts of racing fans with his remarkable performance throughout the event . Starting from the 32nd position , Hyde ’ s “ Jack and the Green Stock ” ’ 69 Camaro , known for its mesmerizing green exterior with the name emblazoned on the side , showcased its immense power , blazing through the ultra-tight field with elapsed times well into the 3.60-second range .
“ It ’ s taking steps for the World Series of Pro Mod and the Pro Mod class ,” continues Hyde . “ You see all the Street Outlaws cars on there , which is obviously a big deal , but it ’ s exciting to have ‘ real ’ Pro Mod included amongst all those big names like Kye Kelley and Lizzy Musi and Ryan Martin . It ’ s a pretty big deal .”
