IHRA Sportsman Spectacular presented by Moser Engineering and Fuel Tech at Piedmont Dragway is One Week Away

Wednesday, 15 March 2023

HOUSE SPRINGS, Missouri — The International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) Sportsman Spectacular presented by Moser Engineering and Fuel Tech begins the 2023 season in one week, March 25-26, at Piedmont Dragway, Julian, N.C. 

Racers in the Carolinas and surrounding states have a chance to compete for big checks, big money, the prestigious IHRA Ironman trophies and a chance to qualify for the IHRA Summit SuperSeries World Finals.

The event is tailored to Piedmont Dragway’s IHRA Summit SuperSeries points programs. It was a two-day event in 2022 with Saturday winners: Bubba Paschal (Top Eliminator), Scott Macy (Footbrake) and Alyssa Tilghman (Junior Dragster). Sunday winners were: Jonathan McCandless (Top Eliminator), Matt Sayers (Footbrake) and Gavin Whisnant (Junior Dragster) at the 1/8-mile drag strip.

Trailer Ranch will serve as the sponsor of the Top ET class. RJS Safety Equipment is sponsoring the Junior Dragster class.

Gates open at 3:30 p.m. Friday for a test-and-tune along with a golf cart race. Gates open at 8 a.m. Saturday with time trials to begin at 10 a.m. and eliminations to follow. 

Sunday will be new-entry time runs only and start at 12:30 p.m. We ask that no engines are cranked before noon.
