2020 NHRA Drag Racing Calendar

NHRA Drag Racing is the world's premier acceleration-based motorsport series, centered on the pursuit of ultimate speed and split-second precision over a 1,000-foot or quarter-mile strip. The professional series is headlined by the Top Fuel and Funny Car classes, where nitro-methane-burning engines produce over 11,000 horsepower, propelling cars to speeds exceeding 330 mph in under four seconds. Competition follows a "knockout" bracket format, utilizing the iconic "Christmas Tree" starting lights where reaction times are as critical as raw power. Beyond the nitro classes, the NHRA showcases technical diversity through Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle, as well as a massive "Sportsman" ladder, making it a cornerstone of American hot-rodding culture and the ultimate test of mechanical forced induction and driver reflexes.
