Two nitro machines staged side by side, the Christmas tree cycling down, and then a full-throttle launch that hits you in the chest—few live motorsports moments feel as immediate as drag racing in Pomona. Whether you’ve followed it for years or you’re planning your first one, NHRA Drag Racing Winternationals tickets put you inside one of the sport’s most historic race-day atmospheres.
This page covers everything you need — from understanding how NHRA Drag Racing Winternationals works to finding the right tickets and knowing what to expect when you arrive.
The Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals is an annual NHRA drag racing event held at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip at the Fairplex in Pomona, California (1801 W. McKinley Ave., Pomona, CA 91768). First held in 1961, it’s one of the oldest events on the NHRA calendar and has long carried marquee status—historically serving as the traditional season-opening race where championship campaigns begin.
On-track action is built around head-to-head elimination drag racing. Two vehicles race side by side down the track, with the winner advancing through a single-elimination ladder. The event runs across multiple days (typically over a weekend), with qualifying sessions setting the field and establishing seeding and lane choice based on elapsed times before eliminations narrow down to final rounds that crown winners. Professional categories commonly include Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, and Pro Stock Motorcycle, alongside numerous Sportsman/Lucas Oil Series categories. Beyond the event win, competitors chase the sport’s iconic Wally trophy (named for NHRA founder Wally Parks) and earn points toward the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season championship in each class.
Across its history, the Winternationals has featured many of drag racing’s all-time greats, including John Force, Don “The Snake” Prudhomme, and Tony Schumacher and Schumacher-led Top Fuel teams, along with standout Pro Stock legends. Pomona Dragstrip is deeply tied to NHRA heritage as a cornerstone venue, and the setting on the Fairplex grounds—adjacent to the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum—adds to the sense of tradition. If you're planning to attend NHRA Drag Racing Winternationals, browsing tickets early is the smartest move.

NHRA Drag Racing Winternationals tickets typically range from around $35 to $75 for general admission/single-day entry to $100+ or more for reserved grandstand, multi-day, and premium/pit experiences, with premium packages running higher.
A few factors tend to move prices. Eliminations and finals days often command more than qualifying days, and pricing commonly varies based on reserved vs. general admission. Add-ons like pit access, and seat location—especially proximity to the starting line—can also affect overall cost. For many fans, strong value can be found by targeting qualifying sessions or choosing grandstand locations farther down the track, while premium buyers often prioritize a reserved view near the launch.
