Step back in time and rev up those engines! Milan Dragway is thrilled to present the
Nostalgia Nationals, a spectacular event that celebrates the golden era of drag racing. Join
us for a weekend of high-octane excitement, where the past meets the present in a roaring
symphony of speed.
EVENT HIGHLIGHTS:
Nostalgia Drag Racing: Witness the incredible machines of yesteryears as
they thunder down the track. From vintage dragsters to classic muscle cars,
funny cars, motorcycles, these vehicles have been meticulously cared for
and are ready to show off their power once again.
Classic Car Show: Stroll through rows of gleaming chrome and polished paint
as car enthusiasts showcase their prized possessions. Whether you’re a fan
of the ’50s cruisers or the muscle cars through the ’80s, there’s something
for everyone.
Linda Vaugh “Miss Hurst”: We are honored to have the First Lady of
Motorsports join us for Saturday and Sunday! We will be showing Linda off
