NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

Tickets for the 34th annual NHRA Arizona Nationals are on sale now to the general public for the event taking place Feb. 23-25 at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park outside of Phoenix. 

The adrenaline-filled event marks the second of 24 events in the 2018 NHRA season and the event, a Southwest fixture since 1985, gives teams a chance at memorable early-season success. The high-stakes excitement of NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series racing will also leave fans glued to the intensity-filled competition all weekend.

Last season Leah Pritchett (Top Fuel), Matt Hagan (Funny Car), and Greg Anderson (Pro Stock) enjoyed victories at the 450-acre multi-purpose motorsports facility. 

The event also will feature thrilling competition in the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series as well as the Mickey Thompson Tires Top Fuel Harley Drag Racing Series. 

As always, fans will have the opportunity to interact with their favorite drivers as they’re granted an exclusive pit pass to the most powerful and sensory-filled motorsports attraction on the planet. This unique opportunity in motorsports gives fans direct access to the teams, allowing them to see firsthand the highly-skilled mechanics service their hot rods between rounds, and get autographs from their favorite NHRA drivers.

Fans also will want to visit NHRA’s popular Nitro Alley and Manufacturers Midway, where sponsors and race vendors create a carnival atmosphere, with interactive displays, simulated competitions, merchandise, food and fun for the entire family. 

Mello Yello Drag Racing Series qualifying will feature two rounds on Feb. 23 and two on Feb. 24 with final eliminations scheduled for 11 a.m. on Feb. 25.
