The moment you stepped to the starting line, you could feel it, the Street Car Super Nationals was not just another race. It was raw speed, violent traction, and a facility packed with machines ready to push physics past its comfort zone.

The Strip at Las Vegas gave racers a warm welcome, figuratively, but made sure everyone was awake with a 43-degree morning for the 21st running of the event. Yes, you read that right: this is one of the longest continuously operating races of its kind. As many know, chilly weather makes racing challenging, with crews constantly monitoring track temperatures to ensure a safe and competitive racing surface.

Mother Nature tested everyone all week, delivering the first rain delay in the event’s history along with persistent cold. Even so, the TVC track crew, track staff, and event staff worked tirelessly to keep the show running as smoothly as possible. Competitors traveled from all over for a shot at the Winner’s Circle, including racers from across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada.

For those unfamiliar with the facility, The Strip at Las Vegas is a four-wide track. They used that layout to their advantage by prepping lanes 1 and 2 for slick-tire classes on a quarter-mile surface, while lanes 3 and 4 were prepped for radial classes on an eighth-mile surface. No matter what kind of power you were putting down, you had a competitive racetrack under you. The TVC crew had the surface on full kill mode all weekend, claiming shoes, launching crew members onto the ground, and forcing tires to sink in for a bite you could feel in your chest.

One of the best things about this event is that it has a place for everyone, from heads-up racers to index competitors. You’ll see everything from an ’06 Hyundai Santa Fe to a ’64 Mercury Cyclone, all the way up to Pro Mods and dragsters. It didn’t matter what you brought, everyone was leaving it all on the line. With this being an end-of-season race, many drivers went full send and turned everything all the way up, making for an insane weekend packed with personal bests and Winner’s Circle moments.

As the week progressed, the tension in the staging lanes grew. Drivers were locked in, crews had their machines tuned like fine art, and every pair that rolled under the arch pulled the crowd closer to the fence. From clean A-to-B blasts to wild top-end saves, every class delivered a show. The event produced spectacular side-by-side racing, with runs so close you had to rely on the scoreboards to see how many thousandths decided the winner.

That intensity explains why some competitors have attended all 21 Street Car Super Nationals events, George Raygoza and Kevin Guthrie, to be exact. The event continues to grow every year, and 2026 is already shaping up to be even more rowdy. The official date for the 2026 event is November 18–22.
