The NHRA Funny Car Championships are a key part of the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) drag racing series. These events feature high-powered, modified cars that can reach speeds over 300 miles per hour in just a few seconds. Each race consists of head-to-head competitions on a straight track, where drivers aim to complete the quarter-mile distance in the shortest time. Funny Cars are known for their unique design, resembling production vehicles but built for extreme performance. The championships take place at various venues across the United States, culminating in a season finale where the top drivers compete for the championship title.
