The Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals, held each March at Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville, Florida, is one of NHRA’s longest standing annual events going back to the days of muscle cars, doo-wop and Coca-Cola. While the engines are faster and the tracks are safer these days, the true spirit of drag racing remains at Gainesville Raceway. The Gatornationals are a community staple providing entertainment and economy to the area.
