For nearly five decades, Night Under Fire has been more than a drag race. It has become an annual pilgrimage for racers and fans who expect one thing every August: a show unlike anything else in motorsports.
CompetitionPlus.com teamed with award-winning filmmaker Jesse Douglas of Dirt Co. Media to capture what most fans never get to see.
Go behind the scenes with Bill Bader Jr., the Bader family, and the Summit Motorsports Park team as they battle changing weather, impossible logistics, and enormous expectations to deliver a sold-out Night Under Fire at America's Drag Strip.
This isn't simply another race recap.
It's an inside look at the people, passion, preparation, and pressure that transform Norwalk, Ohio, into one of drag racing's most celebrated spectacles. From the opening preparations to the final fireworks, experience the atmosphere, horsepower, emotion, and scale that have made Night Under Fire a bucket-list event for generations of fans.
Turn up your speakers.
Watch it on the biggest screen you have.
Then experience why so many people say there is simply nothing else like Night Under Fire.
Produced by Bobby Bennett
Filmed by Jesse Douglass | Dirt Company Media
