Lance Godec out of Grants Pass Oregon on a wild tire shaking pass in his AA/Gas 63 Chevy Corvette at the 30th annual California Hot Rod Reunion presented by Automobile Club of Southern California Famoso Dragstrip

2026 The California Hot Rod Reunion, presented by Good Vibrations Motorsports and featuring Nitro Revival, is set to deliver a full weekend of throwback style drag racing action when the event returns to the legendary Famoso Dragstrip October 23rd–25th, 2026.

This year’s Reunion will feature 17 different drag racing classes, ranging from door slammers to gassers to altereds and much more.

Headlining the weekend will be the fan-favorite nitro-burning Top Fuel Dragsters, Funny Cars and AA/Fuel Altereds, bringing the sights and sounds of nitromethane-powered drag racing to Famoso’s historic quarter-mile.

Pro Modified racing will also return in a big way, with the West Coast Outlaw Pro Mod Association competing throughout the weekend. Joining them will be the NHRA Heritage Series Group 1 and Group 2 classes, along with the always-popular A/FX class.

Making its return following its successful debut at the 2025 California Hot Rod Reunion is the California Independent Funny Car Association (CIFCA). The Outlaw Gasser Association will also be on hand, making smoky burnouts and high-flying wheel standing exhibition runs throughout the weekend.

Every California Hot Rod Reunion ticket is an ALL-ACCESS PASS and includes access to the pits, Car Show, Vendor Midway and Swap Meet. Fans can get up close to the race cars and drivers, browse hundreds of vendors and swap meet displays, and experience the history and culture that have made the California Hot Rod Reunion one of the premier events on the West Coast.

“Whether you’re a lifelong drag racing fan or experiencing the Reunion for the first time, there will be something happening all weekend long,” said event producer, Blake Bowser. “With 17 different racing classes, nitro-burning legends, Pro Mods, A/FX, Funny Cars, Gassers and so much more, this is going to be one incredible weekend at Famoso.” About the California Hot Rod Reunion

Matt Hagan is looking to add his name to the NHRA U.S. Nationals record books this weekend at Indy while holding onto the No. 1 spot in Funny Car points.

The battle couldn’t be much tighter. Jordan Vandergriff enters Indy No. 2, just seven points behind Hagan, with the regular-season championship on the line at The Big Go.

Can the four-time Funny Car World Champion leave Indy with a U.S. Nationals Wally and the points lead?
