What is FAST ??? 

For the 23 years the FAST Racing Series has been the place to run your 

Factory Appearing Muscle Car to the limits of a Stock Tire


Enjoy this video from our 2014 event! 

FAST Class

The FAST class is where the fastest Factory Appearing Muscle Cars come to play.

Restricted to stock size tires, factory casting and cubic inch limits, these cars achieve sub 10 second ETs and 140 MPH trap speeds. 

The FAST Class continues to grow, with a seven race schedule in 2019, racing in MI, OH, IN, TN, MD, and NY.

The NMCA brought FAST in as a Featured Class in 2016 and has expanded our invitation to 3 races this season. The NMCA also provides FAST fans with live streaming of each event on speedvideo.com.

Hemmings has featured FAST at the Spring and Fall Musclepaloozas for 10 years, and provides coverage of our events in Muscle Machines. 

FAST competitors run a Pro Ladder Quick 8 at all events.


FAST Rules

Factory Stock 

Factory Stock is just as competative as the FAST class, but with a much stricter rulebook.

Factory Stock does not allow for lightweight internal parts, ported heads, trick transmissions, or overbores that exceed .070, yet, high 10 second runs have posted by top cars in the class. 

Factory Stock eligible cars run at all FAST events in their own class. 

The Factory Stock class is a mix of Pure Stock eligible cars and racers from different states that come to compete on some of the best prepped tracking in the country. 

Looking for a little magazine coverage for your eligible muscle car? A FAST Factory Stocker made the cover of Hot Rod magazine, and you could be next. 

Factory Stock competitors run a Sportsman Ladder Quick 8 at all events.

Factory Stock Rules

Modern Muscle

Modern Muscle is only run at the FAST Spring Nationals and is a great way to join us on the track.
