After 18 teams battled at the Hot Rodders of Tomorrow UTI Pennsylvania Qualifier in Exton, Pennsylvania, last weekend, four schools advanced to the Dual National Championships held later this year at the SEMA Show and PRI Show. The playoff team count now stands at 35.

With four returning team members and two students with just weeks under their belt, they knew this challenge was cut out for them. Coach Chris Overfelt is no stranger to success with Hot Rodders of Tomorrow, as he has consistently led National Championship teams to victory.
