A little history on Nitrolympx
The first event took place in 1986. Back in those days drag racing wasn’t popular but still Nitrolympx has attracted a lot of audience. This event has grown over the past decades into a major event.

This year this event celebrates its 30 years, and the number of audience in attendance was higher which can be seen during the whole weekend.

Besides FIM and FIA, there are other classes to be seen, providing a tremendous show.

We cannot get enough of the JET CARS. This moment pictured below really set the tone of the whole event.

The shear noise, power and JETFUEL being burned. It is just amazing that it all comes out of a drag car.

Besides the racing, there was also a lot of stunting going on. These guys made the crowd go wild all weekend with their crazy acrobatic moves on their machines.
