For Immediate Release: Hughes Performance
Continues To Support The Pacific Street Car Association and Hughes Performance today announced Hughes Performance 2011 involvement with the PSCA. Hughes will be the Class Title Sponsor of PSCA's quickest and fastest class "Pro Street", Event Title Sponsor of the "Hughes Performance California Nationals" held May 20th - 22nd at Auto Club Dragway in Fontana, CA., a major contributing Contingency Sponsor on Transmissions & Torque Converters and Class Title Sponsor of the "Pro Street" class at the prestigious 2011 Super Car Street Nationals VII (Nov 17-20, 2011), which will be held at the Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

"The PSCA, with all their variety of cars and classes gives us the ability to reach new customers as well as continuing to test and develop our products as new performance technology continues to enter the sport of drag racing" What's New From Hughes Performance......
Hughes Performance is proud to announce
the introduction of the XP5 lock-up Powerglide transmission and torque
converter package. The XP5 is the newest generation and most innovative
Powerglide racing transmission currently available throughout the entire
aftermarket. This uniquely engineered Powerglide features custom
hydraulic lock-up circuitry and a specially designed lock-up torque
converter, all of which is activated by a 12-volt solenoid located
inside of the transmission for fully integrated and seamless operation.
Racers can now have the best of both worlds... the torque multiplying
advantages of a torque converter with the efficiency of a clutch, and
all in the lighter weight lower drag Powerglide format. With a
horsepower compatibility rating exceeding 3,000 horsepower, the XP5 is
the strongest Powerglide racing transmission available anywhere. This
transmission is based on our proven Pro Mod-design XP4 transmission,
which was responsible for putting the power down to the tires in the
first ever 3-second nitrous Pro Mod car, and is currently in use by
multiple Pro Mod, Top Sportsman, ADRL Pro Nitrous, and Outlaw 10.5
teams. The XP5 is suitable and recommended for use in any extreme duty
application looking for a significant performance advantage over
conventional Powerglide designs, converter drive units, or
clutch-equipped units.
