Cecil County Dragway hosts the Chesapeake Fall Classic on September 25-26, featuring Top Alcohol Dragster, Top Alcohol Funny Car, and Mountain Motor Pro Stock. ARP Racing Products backs the weekend.

16-car Top Alcohol Dragster and eight-car Mountain Motor Pro Stock fields headline.
Support comes from Top Sportsman, Top Dragster, 8.50 Index, and local classes. Testing runs 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., before Street Night begins at 6 p.m.
Professional qualifying opens at 7 p.m., covering the three headline classes plus 8.50, Top Sportsman, and Top Dragster. A second session for headliners follows at 9 p.m. under cooler air.
Friday night features two professional qualifying sessions at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Saturday repeats an 8 a.m. gate time, with test-and-tune from 10 a.m. Time runs are available for United Nostalgia Stock/Super Stock entrants and Gambler competitors.
Final qualifying for the three primary classes lands at noon. Eliminations begin at 2 p.m., with last-chance qualifying for 8.50, Top Sportsman, and Top Dragster concluded beforehand.
Eliminations across headlining classes start at 2 p.m. Saturday.
General admission is $20 per day for adults and $10 for ages 6-12. Racer entry fees range from $40 for Street Night to $200 for Friday open testing.
General admission: $20 adults, $10 ages 6–12, per day.
The Classic supersedes Cecil County’s scheduled Friday and Saturday programs, though Street Night and test-and-tune remain integrated. The change concentrates staffing, track prep, and attention around the professional schedule.
This format promises brisk conditions for performance and decisive lane-choice battles. The competitive tone mirrors recent headlines, including PDRA World Finals wins that underscored autumn momentum shifts.
Regional interest is strong after features like the Drag Racing Buckeye. Expect tuning windows to narrow quickly as teams chase consistency through night air and Saturday daytime heat.
Alcohol categories gain added focus amid wider narratives, such as Kaiser Racing Top Fuel. Local fans also track stories like the Vergortz Pro Nitrous semifinals this month.
