Mission #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge

The exciting and lucrative Mission #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge will get a whole lot more of both at the Dodge Power Brokers NHRA U.S. Nationals, where the payouts will be increased by 50% for the final Challenge of the season. 

The Mission #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge, which debuted earlier this season in Phoenix, has brought competitive racing to the qualifying schedule at 12 regular-season events during the NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series campaign, pitting semifinalists from the previous race against each other in a pair of rematches, with the two winners then matching up in the final qualifying session. The competitors race for an additional purse and bonus points for the Countdown to the Championship.

By the program’s completion after the U.S. Nationals, Mission Foods will have paid out more than $470,000 in bonus money to competitors in the Mission Challenge.

The Mission #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge takes place Saturday, Sept. 2, concurrent with qualifying for the Dodge Power Brokers NHRA U.S. Nationals, the biggest and richest drag race of the season.
