NHRA Now is a weekly Web series that gives fans an inside look at the lives of the drivers and teams of the NHRA and keeps everyone up to date on the latest happenings on and off the track, all season long. NHRA Now also is shared on NHRA's Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube pages each week.

In this week's edition of NHRA Now, host Alex Baca previews the much-anticipated NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway just outside of Charlotte. She checks in with drivers on how they're feeling heading into the season's one and only four-wide race as well as announces some racers who will be making their debuts this weekend. She also compares being an astronaut to being an NHRA driver.
