PRO NATIONAL RACING SERIES was formed in June 2010 by Ronnie Binkley and Eldon Isenberg as a website to promote the Baby Grand Pro Division and showcase the drivers on a weekly basis. Plans are to run several local and regional races at tracks all across the country under the PRO NATIONAL RACING SERIES name and to change the car name to a PRO NATIONAL CAR.
