NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

The NHRA has appointed JRL Group to manage and expand a comprehensive licensing program under the NHRA brand.

The National Hot Rod Association is the world’s largest motorsports sanctioning body. Since its inception in 1951, the National Hot Rod Association has been the preeminent force in the world of Drag Racing and Hot Rodding.  The NHRA fields race teams with over 11,000 horsepower that reach extreme speeds of over 300mph in just under 4 seconds!

“There’s nothing like it in all of sports. The speed, the acceleration, the sound, the technology, it is the most unbelievable sensory experience in motorsports. It is like standing next to the launch of the Space Shuttle,” stated Andrew Lieb, President, JRL Group.  “For decades the NHRA has been recognized as the premier sanctioning body in motorsports with not only legendary teams and drivers racing down the track, but extremely loyal fans that are passionate about the sport they love. We are very excited about the licensing opportunities and we plan to leverage the NHRA’s rich heritage as well as its best-in-class reputation to deliver high quality products for these loyal fans.”
