The NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series is set to thrill fans at the Muckleshoot Casino Resort NHRA Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways from July 18-20, marking one of the event’s most exciting editions in its 36-year history. The weekend features a spectacular lineup, including nitro racing on Friday, three rounds of intense 12,000-horsepower action on Saturday, and eliminations on Sunday.

A highlight this year is the Friday Primetime qualifier sponsored by Deecell Power Systems, which rewards the low qualifier in the night session. Fans can kick off the festivities with a $15,000 tournament at Muckleshoot Casino Resort and attend a fan fest on July 17. An after-party with live music will follow Saturday’s qualifying rounds.

Television coverage will include qualifying action and eliminations broadcasted on FOX. Last year’s winners included Steve Torrence (Top Fuel) and Austin Prock (Funny Car), both of whom are strong contenders this season. Prock leads the Funny Car ranks, while the Pro Stock category is dominated by the KB Titan Racing team, including reigning champion Greg Anderson.

Fans can enjoy immersive experiences like Nitro School, meet-and-greets, and pit passes throughout the weekend. Qualifying kicks off with Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle on July 18, leading into more exhilarating events on Saturday and eliminations on Sunday. Tickets are available online, with free admission for children 12 and under with a paid adult.
