NHRA officials announced today the return of PowerEdge, a line of high-quality, competitively-priced commercial and heavy-duty truck aftermarket products, as the presenting sponsor of the 38th annual DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals at scenic Sonoma Raceway.<\/p>\n

The DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals presented by PowerEdge takes place July 17-19 in Sonoma and will serve as the 11th of 20 events during the 2026 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season, as part of NHRA\u2019s yearlong 75th anniversary celebration.<\/p>\n

NHRA\u2019s annual stop at picturesque Sonoma Raceway remains a highlight for racers and fans alike. For nearly four decades, fans have packed the standout facility, which is traditionally one of the fastest tracks on the NHRA tour.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cWe\u2019re proud to once again showcase PowerEdge as the presenting sponsor of the DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals,\u201d said Jose Ramirez, Senior Manager, Sales. \u201cAs the PowerEdge brand continues to gain momentum, this partnership reinforces our commitment to delivering dependable, high\u2011quality solutions while connecting with the race teams, fans, and communities that share our passion for performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2026 DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals presented by PowerEdge will again feature the GETTRX NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout. The top eight riders of the Pro Stock Motorcycle class will compete in the Callout-style specialty event with big money and bragging rights on the line.<\/p>\n

DENSO\u2011sponsored six\u2011time world champion Matt Smith has dominated the GETTRX Pro Stock Motorcycle All\u2011Star Callout, winning the event in both 2024 and 2025. This year, he\u2019ll face stiff competition from reigning world champion and event winner Richard Gadson and his teammate, two\u2011time champ Gaige Herrera.<\/p>\n

The 2025 DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals presented by PowerEdge featured wins from Doug Kalitta (Top Fuel), Austin Prock (Funny Car), Greg Stanfield (Pro Stock) and Gadson (Pro Stock Motorcycle). Brittany Force wowed fans on Friday night last year as well with an incredible run of 343.16-mph, which served as the fastest run in Top Fuel history until Force again broke the mark later in the year.<\/p>\n

Kalitta became the winningest Top Fuel driver in Sonoma with his sixth win at the track last year, while other past Sonoma winners include multi-time world champions Antron Brown, who has five wins, Ron Capps, who leads active Funny Car racers with four wins in wine country, and Greg Anderson, who also has six Sonoma victories.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to have PowerEdge return as the presenting sponsor of the DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals,\u201d said Brad Gerber, NHRA Vice President and Chief Development Officer. \u201cPowerEdge has established itself as an exciting player in the aftermarket space, and this partnership continues to be a natural fit with NHRA\u2019s passionate fanbase. We\u2019re proud to showcase the PowerEdge brand in Sonoma at one of the most anticipated events during our 75th anniversary season.\u201d<\/p>\n
