The final NHRA National Dragster of 2021, the annual Year in Review issue, is now online in digital format and in the mail in its traditional print format to NHRA Members around the world.

The National Dragster staff wraps up NHRA’s fabulous 70th anniversary season with a guardwall-to- guardwall look at the 2021 season, capturing all of the magic, mayhem, and wonder of a rebound year following 2020’s pandemic-paused campaign.

Every championship, from Top Fuel to Top Sportsman and Pro Mod to Factory Stock, has been dissected and analyzed with commentary by the champ on how they reached this pinnacle of their career. From Steve Torrence’s dominating season in Top Fuel to the Alcohol-class slugouts between Rachel Meyer and Jackie Fricke and Sean Bellemeur and Doug Gordon to Jimmy Lewis’ cross-country treks to win a second title, it’s all there.

We’ve also got our annual Year in Photos feature, presenting some of the great and telling images from the season, a look back at the season’s most memorable moments, and our salute to some of the racing heroes we lost in 2021.

You’ll also find a complete of top points earners in every class, photo highlights from the SEMA Show and NHRA Awards Ceremony, and complete coverage of the Camping World season-ending Dodge//SRT NHRA Nationals from Las Vegas and the Auto Club NHRA Finals, plus race coverage from the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series and National Open trails.

You can also find complete coverage of the annual California Hot Rod Reunion, touching all bases from the social and racing side of the annual nostalgia fest.
