The International Hot Rod Association Outlaw Drag Boat Series is bringing the Fastest Show on Water to Spring Creek Marina on Lake Nasworthy the weekend of June 26-28.
The weekend kicks off with a free Show & Shine event on Friday, June 26, at Spring Creek Marina, where the public is invited to view the boats up close, meet the drivers, and enjoy a sneak peek at the weekend's contenders.

Fans can expect a weekend of full-throttle excitement as drag boats tear across the water at speeds exceeding 250 MPH. The Top Fuel Hydro, the fastest class of boats, will have a winning purse of $70,000 and will likely attract many racers in that class.
“This is one of the most exciting weekends in motorsports,” Cody Childress, member of the IHRA Powerboating Race Committee and event organizer, said. “Whether you're a race fan, looking for family fun, or just love being outdoors, there's nothing quite like the sound and speed of IHRA Outlaw Drag Boats flying across the water.”
The event is expected to draw large crowds from across Texas and surrounding states. Early ticket purchases are strongly encouraged.
