About the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series
Since it was founded in 1951, the National Hot Rod Association has been dedicated to safety while providing millions of racing fans with The Extreme Motorsport: the fastest and most spectacular form of entertainment on wheels. Today NHRA is a thriving leader in the world of motorsports and has evolved into the largest promoter of professional drag racing in the world. It is easy to see why fans are so committed to NHRA Drag Racing, because they continue to have the best access to the behind-the-scenes action of racing. NHRA’s open-pits policy allows fans to get an up-close and personal view of the way teams rebuild engines in less than 75 minutes. While Top Fuel Funny Cars routinely cover a quarter-mile distance in 4.5 seconds at more than 325 mph, NHRA is moving just as fast in popularity with auto racing fans. Second only to NASCAR in terms of attendance, fan appeal, and sponsorship commitment, NHRA is moving quickly into mainstream America.
