NHRA (National Hot Rod Association)
The National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) is a drag racing governing body that sets rules in drag racing and hosts events all over the United States and Canada. With over 40,000 drivers on its rosters, the NHRA claims to be the largest motorsports sanctioning body in the world.
Wally Parks formed the organization in 1951 in California to establish a governing body to organize and promote drag racing. The first NHRA Nationals was held in Great Bend, Kansas, in 1955.
