The U.S. Nationals. The Big Go. Indy.

Call it what you want, but the NHRA U.S. Nationals is undeniably the biggest weekend in NHRA racing. Described by some as the Super Bowl of drag racing, the race is held over Labor Day weekend and offers five full days of racing action. The event is the final race before the Countdown to the Championship begins, giving it extra importance for teams still trying to make the show.

You can see race results and the final Countdown to the Championship fields in the professional categories by reading our event wrap-up. You can check out cool photos, courtesy of Auto Imagery and Drag Race Central, by scrolling through the gallery above. Be sure to look for even more photos from Indy—and all other NHRA, IHRA, and ADRL races, at Drag Race Central.
