Four-Race 2013 NMCA WEST Schedule Announced

Promedia and the Flowmaster National Muscle Car Association announced late last week the schedule for the sophomore season of the fledgling Flowmaster NMCA WEST Street Car Nationals Series, which will once again boast four events at three of the west coast’s premier racing facilities with heads-up, index, True Street, and bracket racing action in a wide range of drag racing categories.

As it did in its inaugural season, the 2013 campaign will kick off the fabled Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield, Calif. on April 5-7, 2013 with the 2nd annual Lucas Oil NMCA WEST Street Car Nationals, featuring all of the late and early-model domestic drag racing action the NMCA and it’s spinoff series are known for.

The series will then make a return to the historic Auto club Raceway at Pomona in Pomona, Calif. on May 16-19 for the 3rd annual JE Pistons West Coast Shootout presented by Lucas Oil. The Pomona event made headlines in 2012, as the only non-NHRA national event to be held at one of drag racing’s top shrines in years.

After a lengthy break, the NMCA WEST will return to action the weekend of September 6-8, when the series makes its first trip to the Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Unlimited Products NMCA WEST Street Car Nationals.

Finally, the 2013 campaign will come to a close on October 25-27 with the NMCA WEST World Street Finals back where it all began in April — at the Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield.

The NMCA West Series will again feature competition in a number of heads-up eliminators, including Pro Street, True 10.5, 275 Drag Radial, N/A 10.5, and Outlaw 8.5, along with Nostalgia Street Car, Open Comp, Mustang Madness, Super Quick, and Quick Street providing some exciting bracket and index action. The series will also feature the always-popular True Street class for competitors wanting to show off what their street-going rides are capable of.
