The Northern Nevada Racing Association (NNRA) held its third drag race of the season on July 25 and 26. The Fifties Fever Street Drags draws racers from across northern Nevada - Winnemucca, Reno, Carson City, Minden, Lovelock, Battle Mountain, Elko, and Spring Creek. Additionally, racers from California, Oregon, Washington and Idaho also joined in the fun. The NNRA is a drag racing club in Winnemucca, and will host four major racing events in 2014. The Street Drags are held annually during the community's Fifties Fever Celebration. They are hosted by the NNRA and held on Traders Way in Winnemucca and included four separate classes of cars. Special thanks to Warren Havens of Wicked Metal Works for presenting trophies to our winners. The trophies were built and donated by Andy Latham of Golconda, Nev., and Warren donated time and materials to powder coat each of them.
