California Hot Rod Reunion

The California Hot Rod Reunion, presented by Good Vibrations Motorsports and featuring Nitro Revival, will include a lineup of 17 racing classes at this year’s event, set for Oct. 24–26, 2025, at legendary Famoso Dragstrip.

Headlining the weekend will be the fan-favorite nitro-burning Top Fuel dragsters and Funny Cars, alongside all NHRA Heritage Series Group 1 and 2 classes, plus A/FX.

In a continued effort to expand participation and excitement, the AA/Fuel Altered class remains open to all nitro-burning Fuel Altereds, welcoming a thrilling mix of short and long-wheelbase machines.

New for 2025, the Reunion will also welcome the Outlaw Gasser Association, which will make exhibition runs throughout the weekend, and the California Independent Funny Car Association. These additions bring even more variety and competition to the already packed lineup.

Approximately 400 competitors will take to the strip, each racing for the prestigious “Wally” trophy and a chance to etch their name into Hot Rod Reunion history.

While the event officially kicks off on Friday, Oct. 24, fans who purchase a full event spectator ticket will gain exclusive access to Thursday’s Test and Tune session on Oct. 23.
