    Clean it up!

    Nice venue for the Lucas Oil Drag Boat races. We came on Sunday morning and there was still trash all over the stands and in the bathrooms and on the bridge over from the previous day. I do think this should have been cleaned up....More

    Good for NHRA

    I figured the parking would be a bit easier with such a small crowd of circa 5,000 but it was not the best. Once in the area it was wonderful. Having each ticket get you into the pits is really a nice way for the...More

    Good management for NHRA events

    The new management has parking, shuttle service and ticket sales well thought out and well placed. They over-sold General Admission at the last NHRA National, but that just means we'll get reserved seats next time. The vendors are more organized, the midway was just as...More

    The facility was under Firebird Raceway. Now, it's known as "Wild Horse Pass Raceway", owned and operated by the Indian tribe that also runs the Casino near by. As with previous name, ALL of the vendors are a rip-off operation, taking advantage of race fans...More

    NHRA In Town

    Eery February the NHRA absolutely rocks Firebird International Raceway with a weekend of professional drag racing. The new ownership has made some much needed improvements and the venue provides some of the best racing action anywhere.

    Good Times

    Been to many great events at this Raceway, it can get hot, so bring lots of water and sunscreen. pay parking in the lot, no other parking around, which is fine. Depending on your event, you can sometimes get cheap tickets in the parking lot,...More
