NHRA announced its “Summer Kickoff” license transfer program today, which offers racers a chance to transfer their license to NHRA from other sanctioning bodies with a limited-time discount during June on one and two-year licenses.

Transferring a license to NHRA allows races to compete at more than 110 NHRA Member Tracks across North America, as well as compete in the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series and Summit Racing E.T. Series.

A NHRA license also gives competitors a comprehensive list of perks, including:

  • Excess medical insurance coverage of $600,000 at your NHRA Member Track.
  • An Official NHRA Competition License Card.
  • Exclusive discounts with NHRA partners like Summit Racing Equipment and others.
  • A 25% off discount for NHRA.tv, which streams live championship drag racing action at NHRA national events and divisional events across the country.
  • NHRA National Dragster Magazine online.

After announcing a significant purse increase for the upcoming Summit Racing Series World Championship later this year in Las Vegas, now marks an ideal time for racers to get involved at their local NHRA track.

The discount license transfer program in June also allows a great opportunity for racers to join the largest sanctioning body in drag racing, with the NHRA set to celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2026, and one offering competitors industry-leading benefits and the most racing options. 

“This is a tremendous opportunity for racers to experience NHRA Drag Racing, compete against the best racers in the world and take advantage of the resources, benefits and support that comes from a sanctioning body with more than seven decades of experience,” NHRA Sportsman Manager Jason Galvin said. “We’re excited to welcome new racers and build on what is already the strongest group of sportsman racers in drag racing.”
