One of the sport’s most prestigious events is the traditional East Coast opener. Gainesville Raceway has been host to record- and barrier-breaking passes in its five-decade run, including the first 300-mph Top Fuel pass in 1992 and the first 200-mph Pro Stock Motorcycle pass. The event will play host to the lucrative All-Star Callout for Top Fuel drivers as well as the season debuts of the Pro Stock Motorcycle, Pro Mod, and Top Fuel Harley classes.

As always, fans will have the opportunity to interact with their favorite drivers, as Every Ticket's a Pit Pass® at the most powerful and sensory-filled motorsports attraction on the planet! Get direct access to the teams, see firsthand as the highly-skilled mechanics service their hot rods between rounds, and get autographs from your favorite NHRA drivers.
