Acceleration is the heartbeat of NHRA Drag Racing – it's what forms the emotional bond between the race and its fans. The raw power that pins you to your seat, the earth-shaking launch off the starting line, and the adrenaline that follows each run are what make drag racing truly unique.

When it comes to delivering this intense, gut-wrenching experience, nothing compares to the G-forces felt in Pro Stock Bike, Pro Stock Car, and Top Fuel Dragster classes. These machines launch down the track with explosive force, reaching speeds that defy logic in mere seconds. It’s an experience so powerful that it’s felt by every fan in the stands.

NHRA Drag Racing doesn’t just showcase speed; it creates a visceral, emotional connection through unmatched acceleration, leaving everyone craving that next electrifying run down the strip. It’s the ultimate motorsport thrill.
