A Nod to Motorsport History

The IHRA Vintage Series pays tribute to the golden era of drag racing. With meticulously restored 1/4-mile and 1/8-mile classics taking the stage, fans and racers alike will experience the raw power and craftsmanship of motorsport’s past.
This initiative is part of IHRA’s mission to honor the sport’s roots while continuing to innovate for the future.

“We’re bringing history back to the strip — and giving it the spotlight it deserves.”
— John Bosco, CEO, IHRA Motorsport

Debut Events Set for Fall 2025

The Vintage Series will kick off with showcase events at select tracks across the country starting in October 2025. These events will feature timed exhibitions, show-and-shine competitions, and live pit walk-throughs that give fans up-close access to the vehicles and teams behind them.

“It’s more than just racing — it’s an experience that brings generations of motorsport fans together.”
— Fred Bosco, Manager, IHRA Events
Celebrating Craftsmanship and Competition
From iconic bodywork to roaring engines, the Vintage Series highlights the golden era of drag racing with unmatched authenticity. These events are more than competitions — they’re curated celebrations of craftsmanship, legacy, and the spirit that defines IHRA motorsport.
