Engines rev up for the NGK Spark Plugs NHRA Four-Wide Nationals on Friday, April 27, 2018 and the action continues through Sunday, April 29. Here are five reasons you should join us in Concord, NC this weekend!
It’s zMAX Dragway’s Birthday
2018 marks the 10th Anniversary of zMAX Dragway, the first four-lane drag strip on the NHRA schedule. Known as “the Bellagio of Drag Strips,” zMAX has celebrated a lot of famous firsts over the years. It hosted the first NHRA-sanctioned four-wide race. It was also home to the first 1,000-ft. lap run in under four seconds in Funny Car history– completed in 3.995 seconds by driver Matt Hagan.
Feel the Force of 40,000 Horsepower
Each nitro-burning machine boasts 10,000-horsepower. Combined with the layout of the original four-lane drag strip, this set up means that you get the full effect of 40,000-horsepower tearing down the track as the best racers in the sport run side-by-side-by-side-by-side. Talk about an adrenaline rush!
Every Ticket is a Pit Pass
All tickets to the NGK Spark Plugs NHRA Four-Wide Nationals give you access to the pits where you can see your favorite drivers, hard-working crews and their impressive cars up close.
