“Everyone at NHRA is thrilled to welcome these new tracks into the NHRA Member Track family,” said Rob Park, NHRA Senior Director of Field Operations. “With NHRA’s dedicated team of 23 full-time employees solely focused on supporting our NHRA Member Tracks, as well as sportsman and grassroots racers, it’s incredibly rewarding to see these new facilities recognize the value not only in what NHRA offers, but also in the association network of NHRA Member Tracks across the country.
“Their confidence in NHRA’s mission to protect, preserve, and promote the sport of drag racing reflects the strength of our programs and our shared passion for delivering safe, competitive, and exciting drag racing experiences at the local level.”
By moving to the huge NHRA Member Track Network, each of the facilities are eligible to offer racers in the area a variety of NHRA-sanctioned racing opportunities in the future, including the NHRA Summit Racing Series, the NHRA Summit Racing Jr. Drag Racing League, NHRA Street Legal, NHRA Jr. Street and more.
