The U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis have been described as the “Super Bowl of drag racing.”
As the NHRA’s biggest event, the U.S. Nationals have provided some of the sport’s biggest moments. This weekend, as the 60th edition of the U.S. Nationals take place, the NHRA has decided to commemorate the event’s top moments. Chances are you won’t be in attendance, so we’ve got video of five of the biggest moments in U.S. Nationals history below:
1970: Don Prudhomme vs. Jim Nicholl
1983: Kenny Bernstein Doubles Up
1982: Shirley Muldowney Wins First U.S. Nationals Title
