Racetech, a New Zealand-based racing seat manufacturer, has launched an NHRA contingency program for 2025 Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series national events.

The partnership launched last month at the 2025 American Rebel Light NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway in Concord, North Carolina. 

Racetech USA has committed to more than $30,000 in potential contingency payouts in 2025 to racers who win or finish runner-up in the following classes: Stock Eliminator, Super Stock, Super Gas, Super Street, Top Sportsman, Factory Stock Showdown ((including OEM-equipped Drag Pak and Cobra Jet), Factory X and Pro Mod.

To be eligible, competitors must run Racetech seats and display the official Racetech decal on both sides of their race car. 

"Drag racing is the ultimate test of precision, performance, and durability – the same qualities engineered into Racetech seats" said Brian Oleshak, Racetech USA's vice president of sales. "We're proud to support NHRA racer safety in one of the most competitive motorsports in the world." 

Contingency decals will be available on-site at the upcoming Gerber Collision and Glass Route 66 NHRA Nationals, held on May 15-18 at Route 66 Raceway in Elwood, Illinois, and distributed through NHRA Tech Trailer prior to the start of eliminations. 

Racers can look forward to enhanced support, increased visibility and new opportunities through Racetech's involvement with the NHRA community throughout 2025 and beyond, the company said.
