A Motorsports Spectacle: The 47th Annual Cornwell Tools Night Under Fire

Pulling off a massive one day drag racing is a challenge, but the team at Summit Motorsports Park makes it look easy. The sold out 47th Annual Cornwell Tools Night Under Fire filled Summit Motorsports Park to the brim with spectators and they were treated to an epic show.

Bill Bader Jr. and his team swing open the gates each year for the Night Under Fire and provide a magical experience filled with horsepower. There are Nitro Funny Cars, Top Fuel Dragsters, Top Fuel Harleys, Pro Mods, Top Alcohol Funny Cars and Dragsters, wheel standers, and of course a bunch of jet-powered machines. The on-track action is just one part of the entertainment experience at the Summit Motorsports Park Night Under Fire in Norwalk, Ohio. There’s also a fireworks display that rivals what you see at a Disney theme park, live music, and a chance to meet the winning drivers on the track’s surface.

“The caliber of racing and entertainment at this year’s 47th Annual Cornwell Tools was top-notch, and we hope that every guest was pleased with the performances,” said Bill Bader, president of Summit Motorsports Park.  “Every year, we try to take things to the next level so that this fabled event remains fresh, fast-paced and fun for everyone involved.”

You’re not going to find another event where you get to see top-tier NHRA big show nitro cars match race, wild jet-powered semi trucks, and who knows what else all in the same night. The Night Under Fire at Summit Motorsports Park is proof the Bader family has perfected the art of putting on a show at the drag strip. You need to add this event to your bucket list of races to attend, because you won’t find a bigger show anywhere else.
