Event Info
Multipurpose World wide Technology Raceway, in the shadow of the famed St. Louis Gateway Arch, returned to the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series schedule in 2012 after a one-year hiatus with a new event in the Countdown to the Championship. It quickly became known for terrific performances, including a former world-record Top Fuel pass by Clay Millican in 2017. |
