John Hall has revealed his new Camaro, built by Jerry Bickel, which he will run in PDRA Pro Nitrous competition. He will continue to run horsepower provided Pat Musi. 

The 36th annual NHRA Arizona Nationals on Feb. 21-23, 2020, is moving its popular Camp Wild Horse overnight campground to Maricopa Road just outside of the main gate of Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.

The new campground experience at the track located just south of Phoenix will close Maricopa Road to allow campers and fans easy access to and from the track.

There are four power adders included in today's modern version of Pro Modified, the volatile doorslammer division launched in 1990 by the IHRA.

However, from the words of one of its recognized founders, the original plan only had two, and one of them was not a supercharger.

This perceived blasphemy amongst blower faithful is the contention of Ted Jones, who was the President of the IHRA when Pro Modified was announced in the fall of 1989.

Alexis DeJoria, who returns to NHRA Funny Car racing this season, will do so with sponsorship from ROKiT Phones and ABK Beer.

ROKiT Phones - creators of glasses-free 3D smartphones - and the award-winning, 700 Year Old Bavarian beer brand, ABK will support Alexis by delivering exclusive 3D content of her to fans via ROKiT smartphones and an ABK beer truck will keep fans refreshed.

NHRA star Richie Crampton will make his debut with Rapisarda Autosport International at Santo’s Summer Thunder meeting, Sydney Dragway, January, 24-25.

“I’m delighted that Richie has agreed to come to Australia and drive for our team this weekend,” said team owner Santo Rapisarda. “My boys, Santo Jr., and Santino have got to know Richie really well when we’ve raced in America and the times he’s returned to Australia to race. He's a world-class driver and a great fit with our family team.”

The 2019 season had its ups and downs for veteran nitro Funny Car driver Bob Tasca III.

However, Tasca couldn’t be more amped up to get rolling for the 2020 NHRA Mello Yello Series campaign in his Ford Mustang Funny Car.

“Listen, I have (co-crew chiefs) Mike Neff and Jon Schaffer at the helm and eight experienced talented guys on the race car,” Tasca said. “I’ve always said I’ve never been more excited to start a season and I think every driver says that every year and I think mathematically on paper this is my best shot going into a season to win a championship I’ve ever had in my career. Excitement (for the 2020 season) is an understatement. I can’t wait to get out 

Nothing grabs the attention of a racing fan quite like a crash.

Drag racing video great Diamond P captured many of these heart-wrenching crashes during their time of covering the NHRA series. In the 1980s, Diamond P created a VHS compilation of the nastiest incidents.

Check out the first of multiple titles under the And the Walked Away lineage.

When the Chrome Czars Motor Club began staging the Hunnert Car Heads Up at the end of the first decade of the 21st century, few believed that vintage drag racing would sustain itself over the long term. After all, they reasoned, there aren't enough old cars left, and few would pay to watch them.

Now, as the second decade of this century comes to a close, the non-believers have been proven wrong, as vintage drag racing in the Upper Midwest is on solid footing, with racers and spectators supporting multiple events at multiple tracks.

Tim Grose, a former nitro Funny Car driver, points out while he suffered a bad crash in 1980, he’s seen a lot worse today.

“I was fortunate to walk away. I still don’t think mine compares to some of those I’ve seen today.”

While he’d prefer that his name be associated more as a competitor who generated the most with the least, he’s still haunted by the reminders of a grisly crash that some rank as one of the worst in the class.
