The historic race will celebrate its 55th anniversary to open a highly anticipated 2024 campaign and a special “Golden Gator” will be awarded to the winners, along with the coveted Wally. The “Golden Gator” highlights the magnitude of the kickoff event, as the Gatornationals represents one of the major events on the NHRA Drag Racing Series tour and has been hallowed grounds for NHRA Drag Racing for more than five decades.

Fans will be treated to a Swamp Rat Alley with Don Garlits personally selecting some of his favorite dragsters for fans to see up close and personal.

Plus, there will be starting line action from some of our favorite current NHRA record holders like Leah Pruitt.
