IMPRESSIVE GROUP OF NHRA STARS SCHEDULED FOR TEXAS FALLNATIONALS FAN FEST

ENNIS, Texas (Oct. 1, 2024) — The official start of the Texas NHRA FallNationals at the historic Texas Motorplex begins on October 10 with an epic line up of NHRA competitors at the Pre-Stage Fan Fest in downtown Waxahachie, Texas, including current and former world champions in all four Mission Foods Drag Racing Series categories, as well as nearly two dozen Texas Fall Nationals professional winners.

More than 50 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series stars, including fan favorites Justin Ashley, Ron Capps, Antron Brown, Texans Steve Torrence and Erica Enders, Matt and Angie Smith are scheduled to sign autographs from 7-8:30 p.m. at this free event, which takes place for the fourth consecutive year at Railyard Park, just south of the historic Waxahachie town square. The JEGS Allstars participants will once again join the festivities allowing fans to meet and greet some of the best sportsman racers from across the country as well.

“Every year the Pre-Stage Fan Fest gets bigger and bigger,” said Christie Meyer Johnson, Texas Motorplex co-owner. “We love having so many drivers spend time with the fans before the race starts. Last year we added the JEGS Allstars participants and now we have one of the largest autograph sessions in all motorsports. This year we have added Andy Ross to the main stage to rock out for all our fans in attendance.”

Reigning 2023 Texas FallNationals champions Matt Hagan, Erica Enders and Gaige Herrera will be in attendance, as well as local drivers Buddy Hull and Kebin Kinsley. Austin residents Alexis DeJoria and 8-time world champion Tony Schumacher, along with Temple, Texas’ Terry Haddock will represent the Lone Star State.

Some of the biggest names in Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle will also join the Texas contingent, including 2024 NHRA championship contenders Tony Stewart, Austin Prock, Dallas Glenn, Aaron Stanfield, J.R. Todd, Shawn Langdon and Josh Hart will be on-site from 7 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. signing autographs.
