The entertaining series features intense racing action and is highlighted by the nitro-burning Nostalgia Top Fuel dragsters and Nostalgia Funny Cars.
The season roars to life at the 61st annual Good Vibrations March Meet, March 7-10, at Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield, Calif. The series will also make their annual visits to Sacramento Raceway, Firebird Raceway, Wild Horse Pass, Osage Tulsa Raceway, and both Top Fuel and Funny Car will be at the new event at Spokane County Raceway.
The series will be highlighted at two Hot Rod Reunions, hosted by the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum presented by Automobile Club of Southern California. The 17th annual Holley National Hot Rod Reunion presented by AAA Insurance at Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green, Ky., is the first on the schedule slated for June 13-15, with Top Fuel and Funny Car competing for points in the series.
The 28th annual California Hot Rod Reunion presented by the Automobile Club of Southern California will conclude the series October 25-27, at Auto Club Famoso Raceway which will decide the championships in all the categories.
