About this track

An IHRA member track in Montgomery that publishes a full season calendar and revises it in writing, which makes it one of the easier tracks in this directory to plan around. The 2026 schedule was released in January and revised on 22 June.

It runs some of the biggest bracket money in the Southeast. The autumn calendar included the Cap City $50K Bracket Race, the IHRA Bracket Finals, a $5,000 and $10,000 Footbrake Race with a double $2,000 Junior Dragster, the Gobble Wobble Thanksgiving Bracket and the Thanksgiving Footbrake Challenge.

The track also runs a heads-up index programme of six races, with 5.30, 6.00 and 7.00 index classes plus Mike Hill's 4.84 Series. Index rules as published allow a delay box and any tire size, on a .400 pro tree, with no throttle stop and no deep staging.

Other regular features are the Super 7 Series bracket races, Friday night slick-prepped test and tune sessions paired with a Top Eliminator bracket race, radial-prepped test and tune, and the Southern Outlaw Tour, which finishes its season here.

All dates are published as subject to change and the track has revised its calendar mid-season before, so confirm before travelling.

Venue update: the Great American event originally listed on Montgomery's 2026 calendar for Oct. 13-18 was officially moved to Gulfport Dragway on 17 September 2026. Gulf South Drags no longer lists that October event at Montgomery.

October 28 update: Montgomery's official Facebook page reported on October 27 that the Halloween Havoc Jr. race will not take place this weekend and that a schedule update is coming. The captured Facebook post was truncated, so Gulf South Drags is treating the cancellation notice as time-sensitive but is waiting for the full replacement schedule before publishing additional event details.
