NHRA Motorsports Museum

Founded by Wally Parks (1913-2007) and an independent nonprofit since 1998, the Museum is the only NHRA (National Hot Rod Association) motorsports museum in the country.  It celebrates the impact of motorsports on American culture. The Museum collects, preserves, exhibits, and interprets the vehicles, stories, and artifacts that represent America’s affection for, and the influence of, automotive speed and style in all its forms. It is the place to view and learn about hot rods, customs, racecars and speed records, and the West Coast’s role as the historic center for the past and present development of hot rodding.
