Quick 6

These are trophies awarded by the NSRA committee. The cars don’t have to be the shiniest or prettiest, they certainly don’t have to be the quickest but they are judged to have been representative of the ‘Spirit of the Event’. The only criteria is that they must have been put through their paces on the quarter mile at some point over the weekend.

Flathead Meltdown

Having formed in the 80s/90s and having been run at Shakespeare County Raceway for several years, the Flathead Meltdown is making its welcomed return to the Hot Rod Drags this weekend at Santa Pod Raceway. Open to flathead vehicles only, these Hot Rods are required to be period correct, meaning no disc brakes, coil overs or radial tyres.

Split Second

Powered by a Rolls-Royce Viper Engine, the Split Second Jet Dragster driven by Julian Webb will be hurtling down the strip with explosive thrust of approximately 5000lbs! (Sat & Sun)

Show Car Parking

There are no trophies or judging but if you want to park your car up for like minded people to admire then head on over to the Show Car Parking area.
