Last season, Doug Kalitta (Top Fuel), Austin Prock (Funny Car), and Gaige Herrera (Pro Stock Motorcycle) each triumphed in Richmond. The 2025 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series features the ninth race, broadcast on FOX and FS1, with eliminations on June 22 starting at 4 p.m. ET. This year continues the two-day race format, allowing fans to witness three qualifying sessions of high-speed, nitro racing on Saturday, followed by eliminations on Sunday.

Competing in the Mission #2Fast2Tasty specialty race, Torrence faces Tony Stewart in a rematch, alongside a matchup of Justin Ashley and Shawn Langdon. After a positive start to 2025, despite a first-round loss in Epping, Torrence aims to build on his momentum in Richmond. He emphasizes the importance of consistency, stating that gathering data from multiple runs enhances their strategy.

Prock, the reigning Funny Car champion, leads the points after winning his first Virginia NHRA Nationals. Herrera, the two-time champion, also tops his class standings with two victories this season. Additional exciting competitors include former champions like Matt Hagan and Ron Capps.

The event also includes racing from the Congruity NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series, and fans aged 21 and older can enjoy American Rebel Light beer. The entertainment lineup features live music and activities at the Nitro Alley Stage, enhancing the weekend experience. Qualifying begins on Saturday, June 21, with eliminations on Sunday.
