The Feature Story

Nostalgia Super Stock, established in 1989, is the oldest organization in existence promoting heads-up exhibition racing. This is a group of men and women who enjoy drag racing super stock cars of the 60s. All of our members owned a car like, or similar to, the one they are racing today.

They come from all professions. We have retirees, a real estate developer, pipe fitters, mechanics and various business owners, bound together by one thing: the roar of a factory hot rod leaving the line with the front wheels in the air.

“The goal is to put on a show made up of 60s-style super stock cars that are Legends of the Past.”

As you will see by our pictures, our cars are reflective of the 60s, and the appearance of our group is, without question, impressive. This is wheels-up exhibition match racing, the only such format in the nation.

Straight From the Rulebook

Three Ways
To Run

The eligibility list has grown over the years. The idea is to include super stock cars that were not just factory-built, but built by racers.

Super Stock

Super Stock

The backbone of the club. 60s-era super stock cars, the kind our members owned back in the day, restored and running the way they were meant to.

New for 2016
FX

Factory Experimental

After three years of research and study, the next evolution in NSS racing. A category built to please racers, spectators and track owners alike.

New for 2016
AWB

Altered Wheelbase

The wild ones. Wheels pushed forward, attitude pushed further, carrying the look of the mid-60s match racers into the modern era.

Meet the Legends

A rolling museum of factory hot rods, each one named, lettered and driven in anger. Here is a look at the field.
