The world’s toughest competition to find the ultimate street-legal drag car, HOT ROD Drag Week puts competitors through a grueling test over five days of action-packed drag racing, requiring racers to drive their vehicles on a specified route from city to city, approximately 1,000 miles, while securing the quickest possible elapsed time across the five days. During the competition, drivers provide photographic evidence to prove they have followed the required route. Some of the nation’s top racers participate in Drag Week each year, and it's not uncommon for competitors to band together to help each other get through the week.

“HOT ROD Drag Week continues to get bigger, faster, and louder every year, ” said Mike Galimi, HOT ROD network director. “On the heels of a wildly successful 2024 tour we are so excited to head to the East Coast for our five-day torture test.”
