The NHRA and Lucas Oil Products share a long history together. That relationship will continue after a multi-year partnership extension between the company and the NHRA. Lucas Oil will continue to be the “Official Oil of the NHRA” and title sponsor of the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series (LODRS).

In 2026, the NHRA LODRS features 47 divisional events, including 14 double-divisional events across North America. The action began in late February at Firebird Motorsports Park. The series also includes 24 regional events, with the season finale taking place in November at the In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals in Pomona.

“From the drag strip to the bottling line, NHRA has played a very important and meaningful role throughout my career,” said Morgan Lucas, CEO of Lucas Oil. “As a former professional drag racer, I have seen firsthand the care and craftsmanship NHRA puts into the sport of drag racing, and it is an honor to now support the organization through Lucas Oil’s industry-leading line of automotive additives and lubricants, built to withstand the elements and the tough conditions drivers face. We thank NHRA for its continued partnership with Lucas Oil, which has truly stood the test of time.”

This partnership goes beyond Lucas Oil being the Official Oil of the NHRA and sponsoring the LODRS. It was also announced that Lucas Oil will maintain the title-rights sponsorship of Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.

“Lucas Oil has been an extraordinary partner with NHRA for the past 25 years, and we’re absolutely thrilled to extend this partnership,” said NHRA Vice President and Chief Development Officer Brad Gerber. “The Lucas family’s commitment to drag racing and our Sportsman racers has been incredible for so many years, forging an incredible legacy in NHRA drag racing. Their support has played a tremendous role in NHRA’s continuous growth, and we look forward to enjoying continued success with Lucas Oil well into the future.”
