It’s D-Day: Death Week Registration Opens Today
August 26th is the day to decide if you will embark on the ultimate adventure that is Death Week.
Encompassing ten days and nearly 2,000 miles across three states, this is the one-time drag-and-drive that you won’t want to miss! Registration opens today at 9am Pacific time.
A road trip of epic proportions, Death Week starts in Arizona at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park with tech and testing on Friday, October 20th, followed by the opening day of racing on Saturday October 21st.
Sunday October 22nd will take the group to California and the first of two tracks to visit in the state, Barona Drag Strip in San Diego.
Monday and Tuesday will be spent traversing from San Diego to Santa Barbara, then to Fresno.
Wednesday October 25th will steer the tour to the Sequoia National Park before racing action returns to the fold with our second California track visit, Famoso Drag Strip in the city of McFarland.
A new adventure means new merch! Don’t miss out on the brand new ‘57 Gasser “For the Adventure” shirt or the “Death Week” shirt! You can visit the merch sales section of the website to find out more!

Thursday, October 26th we put the ‘death’ in Death Week as the route will go across Death Valley in route to Las Vegas, Nevada. That will be followed on Friday, October 27th as a party day in Las Vegas; let’s be honest, do we even need a reason to party in Vegas?
Saturday, October 28th is the final leg of the journey, as we navigate back to Phoenix, Arizona and Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park via the Grand Canyon.
Sunday, October 29th marks the fourth and final track day, as competitors will complete Death Week with passes at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.
Three states, four tracks, 2,000 miles, one bad ass adventure!
