READING, Pa. – For the fourth straight year, NHRA and Maple Grove Raceway officials announced a sellout crowd for Saturday’s qualifying action at the 40th annual NHRA Reading Nationals presented by Nitro Fish.
Celebrating four decades of incredible racing this weekend, fans continued to pack the historic facility for two rounds of qualifying on Saturday as the event opens the six-race NHRA Countdown to the Championship playoffs.
The Koretsky family purchased Maple Grove Raceway in 2022 and has enjoyed a Saturday sellout crowd each season, with this year adding another special moment for the family at the “House of Chaos.”
“This is awesome,” Kyle Koretsky said. “The track has been here 40 years and these fans just keep showing up. The support here is crazy and it means so much to our family. It’s amazing and this is what it’s all about. It’s all about these fans and we hope everyone is enjoying themselves.”
It is the fifth sellout crowd for the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series during the 2025 campaign.
Eliminations for the NHRA Reading Nationals presented by Nitro Fish begin at 11 a.m. ET on Sunday at Maple Grove Raceway.
