100 DAYS OUT: The 60th Annual In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals to Crown Champs in Pomona

POMONA, CA -August 8, 2025 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – In just 100 days, world champions will be awarded in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series, as the thrilling conclusion to the 2025 campaign takes place at the 60th annual In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals on Nov. 13-16 at iconic In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip.

A cornerstone on the NHRA calendar, tickets are currently on sale for the epic finale in Pomona, where champions will be crowned, dreams will be realized and legacies will be forged on the hallowed grounds of In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip.

The historic setting has been home to championship excitement for six decades, delivering the ultimate in NHRA drama. The last two seasons have included winner-take-all final rounds to decide a championship, and with a multitude of contenders across Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle this year, the atmosphere in Pomona will again be electric to close out the Countdown to the Championship playoffs and a banner 2025 season.

The championship chase will undoubtedly be a spectacular one, with several storylines taking shape heading into the NHRA playoffs and Pomona, including:

• Will Top Fuel points leader Shawn Langdon claim a second career world championship? Or will there be a first-time champion in motorsports legend Tony Stewart or Justin Ashley? Veterans like Doug Kalitta, who dramatically won the 2023 title, two-time champ Brittany Force and reigning world champion Antron Brown will also look to get hot at the perfect time and claim another title.

• Is there any stopping Funny Car’s Austin Prock? The reigning world champion has enjoyed another dominant season, winning five times, as he seeks a second straight world title for John Force Racing. But there’s a host of worthy – and championship-proven – contenders, including his teammate, Jack Beckman, Ron Capps, Seattle winner Matt Hagan and J.R. Todd. That foursome has combined for nine world championships and will factor heavily into the can’t-miss finale.

• Last year’s Pro Stock title came down to the final run of the season, with Greg Anderson edging out Dallas Glenn for the win and championship. As the pair have dominated 2025, will history repeat itself? The duo has impressed this year, combining for eight wins, but the competition gap has started to close. Can the likes of Aaron Stanfield, Matt Hartford, Greg Stanfield, Cory Reed and six-time champ Erica Enders make a late-season push?

• Gaige Herrera has ruled the Pro Stock Motorcycle ranks the past two seasons. Will his reign continue with a three-peat? He’s the current points leader, but challengers like Richard Gadson, Matt Smith and John Hall have proven plenty worthy to be championship material in 2025.

Brown (Top Fuel), Beckman (Funny Car), Anderson (Pro Stock), and Smith (Pro Stock Motorcycle) won last year’s event, while Brown (Top Fuel), Prock (Funny Car), Anderson (Pro Stock) and Herrera (Pro Stock Motorcycle) all clinched world titles in Pomona. The race will again be broadcast on FS1 to close the season in style.

Action at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip will include a pair of qualifying runs on both Friday and Saturday, leading into eliminations on Sunday, where history will be made and champions will be crowned. The full weekend schedule will be released in the coming weeks as fans will get unparalleled access to the unforgettable 340-mph, 12,000-horsepower action to close out an incredible 2025 NHRA season.

This year’s In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals also features an amazing experience for racing and car enthusiasts alike.
