IMG_7472

The 12th Annual Nitto NMRA/NMCA Super Bowl Of Street Legal Drag Racing is a colossal event that brings all the stars of the NMRA and NMCA to one race to see which organization is king. Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois is going to be rocking July 27-30 as everything from Pro Mods to classic musclecars all make their way onto the grounds for a weekend of thrilling drag racing. You can see every round of the Super Bowl RIGHT HERE on SpeedVideo.com when the racing begins!

There’s no other event in drag racing quite like the NMRA/NMCA Super Bowl and it provides both the fans and racers with a unique experience. There will be over 30 classes of racing that hit the track at Route 66 Raceway during the course of this event. If that wasn’t enough, racers from both the NMRA and NMCA will face off in the Super Bowl Shoot-Outs to see which organization can bring home the overall victory.

The Super Bowl is a key event when it comes to points in both the NMRA and NMCA since it signals the beginning of the second half of the season. Racers are going to do whatever they can earn that number one qualifying spot and go as many rounds as they can to keep their championship hopes alive. Fans will be treated to some incredibly close racing and the potential for record-setting passes all weekend long, and that helps make the Super Bowl so exciting to attend.

All of the quickest and fastest cars from the NMRA and NMCA will be on the property at Route 66 Raceway adding to the fun of the Super Bowl. There will be a huge field of Pro Mods in Xtreme Pro Mod, great radial tire racing from the Radial Wars class, exciting quarter-mile racing from the Renegade category, and wheels-up action from the Coyote Stock racers! That’s just a small taste of the racing that will be going on all weekend at the Super Bowl.

Fans can also check out the Hot Rodders Of Tomorrow competition as these young gearheads try to earn a spot in the national finals tearing down and assembling a small block Chevy engine. There will also be a massive car show featuring some amazing rides from across the Midwest.
