Friday Night at this year’s NW Nats
While Saturday’s NHRA Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways is traditionally the largest fan day of the weekend and Sunday is race day, Friday is being re-engineered as a new fan favorite with two sessions of professional qualifying including Q2 under the lights plus a pro driver autograph session and fan track walk.
