Yes, you heard correctly! Thanks to overwhelming demand, the NMCA and Flowmaster have come together to promote the NMCA Flowmaster West Street Car Series, slated to have four events on the West Coast during the 2012 season. Heads-up classes and rules are yet to be determined at this time.

Events will be held at the following locations:

  • Famoso Dragway – Bakersfield, CA – June 22-24, 2012
  • Auto Club Speedway - Ponona, CA - August 17-19, 2012
  • Speed World Dragway – Phoenix, AZ – Sept. 21-23, 2012
  • Auto Club Dragway – Fontana, CA – Oct. 19-21, 2012

    I want to race – how do I do it?
    One of the staples of any NMCA event is the True Street class, designed for real, tagged and insured street-going vehicles that can make a 30-mile cruise along with three back-to-back-to-back passes for the ultimate torture test of a street car. The True Street class has been a huge hit at the NMCA events on the East Coast, and the expectation is that the attention-starved West Coast players will turn out in force. True Street gives out an award for the competitor closest to each full-second increment from 15-seconds on down, along with a runner-up award. The winner, or “King” of the event, receives a six-foot-tall trophy, a cape, and crown to go along with the media exposure an NMCA True Street win provides.

    Race for an NHRA Wally!
    NMCA is proud to present an NHRA Wally to each class winner at this event (points classes only) NMCA and NHRA Unleashed have come together to present the best in street car drag racing and it's brought to you courtesy of Aerospace Components. Have you ever wanted to display a Wally on your mantle? Come out and race with NMCA in classes from mild to wild…from index to heads-up! Got Wally? Get yours at this event by racing with NMCA!

    There’s more than just racing action!
    In addition to all of the action that will take place on the quarter-mile, the NMCA will have a fantastic Car Show with many different awards that are presented each day of the show. ’49 Ford pickup with a blown 351? Or a ’66 GTO restored to 100-point concours quality? No matter what your flavor, there’s a place for you in the car show and a shot at the Best In Show award. Each event also features a large Manufacturer’s Midway where you can see and purchase parts from the hottest aftermarket manufacturers and experts from all of the major manufacturers on hand to answer your questions about how to make your Muscle Car or truck perform to your expectations.
