The JEGS Allstars has quickly become a major highlight as part of Texas Motorplex\u2019s Stampede of Speed, and the historic specialty race returns to the famed facility for a third straight year during the upcoming Texas NHRA FallNationals on Oct. 8-12.<\/p>\n

The event moved to the track in 2023 and has continued to grow \u2013 both in action and prestige \u2013 and will be a huge part of the upcoming Texas NHRA FallNationals, which celebrates its 40th year in 2025.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s become a marquee attraction during the massive Stampede of Speed at Texas Motorplex, with the world\u2019s top drivers in the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series competing in the unique event.<\/p>\n

\u201cJEGS has been proud to sponsor and support the JEGS Allstars,\u201d JEGS CEO Gabe Mendoza said. \u201cOur commitment to these racers runs deep; they represent the foundation of drag racing and the passion that fuels the industry. Supporting them isn\u2019t just tradition for us, it\u2019s part of who we are as a company.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe JEGS Allstars truly represents the best of sportsman racing,\u201d added JEGS Marketing Director David Salin. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to have supported this premier event for so many years, and our commitment to the sportsman community is stronger than ever. It\u2019s their passion and determination that keep the sport thriving, and we\u2019re grateful to play a role in that journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now celebrating its 41st year, the JEGS Allstars specialty race features several special events, including the driver and team welcome breakfast sponsored by Hoosier Racing Tires on Thursday, Oct. 9 and drivers participating in the Stampede of Speed Pre-Stage Fan Fest later that evening in downtown Waxahachie.<\/p>\n

Following the opening ceremonies on Friday, Oct. 10, eliminations will take place, including the semifinals in the Top Alcohol categories immediately after the opening qualifying session in Top Fuel and Funny Car. All JEGS Allstars participants will parade in front of the packed stands on Friday night during the JEGS Friday Night Live professional qualifying session. The final rounds in the JEGS Allstars are slated for 1:50 p.m. CT on Saturday, Oct. 11 as champions will be crowned to cap off two thrilling days of racing action in the specialty event.<\/p>\n

Like the last two years, competitors will enjoy Texas-sized traditions, including custom t-shirts and decals for drivers and teams, a custom trophy and a custom-made JEGS Allstars belt buckle for the winners, and the traditional custom-fit Texas Motorplex cowboy hats for winners.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe JEGS Allstars has become a major addition to the Stampede of Speed and Texas Fall Nationals lineup and we are thrilled to have it back,\u201d Texas Motorplex Co-Owner Christie Meyer Johnson said. \u201cHaving racers from all over the country race in an all-star event brings a lot of prestige to the Fall Nationals. Seeing the emotion and passion from those drivers really makes the Stampede of Speed an even more special event for all our\u00a0fans. We have added some Texas traditions to the JEGS Allstars and hope that we will continue to make this a memorable event for all the racers, their fans and teams.\u201d<\/p>\n

For more than four decades, the JEGS Allstars has brought out the best from across NHRA\u2019s seven divisions for the specialty race. The unique event crowns individual champions in 10 separate classes, in addition to the overall team title.<\/p>\n

Racers qualified for the prestigious event by earning points in their home divisions during year-long battles in the following categories \u2014 Top Alcohol Dragster, Top Alcohol Funny Car, Competition, Super Stock, Stock, Super Comp, Super Gas, Super Street, Top Dragster and Top Sportsman.<\/p>\n

The JEGS Allstars event will be shown live on NHRA.tv during the race weekend and also featured on the NHRA on FOX Lucas Oil Sportsman show.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe JEGS Allstars is such a special event for sportsman racers and it\u2019s one we look forward to every year. At JEGS, we\u2019re passionate about celebrating the dedication and talent of some of the best racers across the country, and it\u2019s an honor to help shine a spotlight on them through this partnership,\u201d JEGS Marketing Manager Makenna Brown said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe JEGS Allstars is one of the marquee events of the NHRA year,\u201d NHRA Sportsman Manager Jason Galvin added. \u201cThese are the best of the best from around the country, racing not only for themselves but for their team as well. To be an Allstar is an honor the competitors don\u2019t take lightly and you feel the pride of these racers all weekend. The Stampede of Speed is the perfect event to celebrate them and JEGS.\u201d<\/p>\n
