Hot Rod Magazine’s digital ink about this year’s event just came out. This article focuses mainly on the race but there was way more going on than meets the eye.

This was the race/show that everyone came together to make it happen! We had almost as many Racer and ProStreet participant sponsors as we did major manufacturer sponsors this year. It takes everyone to make it happen but the way the racers and show guys got behind this year’s event was second to none!

We always like to refer to this as the racers race because there is a racer behind almost every part of this event! Not just any racers either these guys and gals are either legends or legends in the making!

See the winners, legends, and 6-second street cars from the 2026 Havliks Fastest Street Car Shootout at Cordova Dragway in Illinois.

What you missed with eyes wide open…

We had a plan going into the feature show with two legendary cars to start the show off as we always do but someone from above sent us a different plan that just felt right.

Jes and I were not together that morning but both of us had crossed the paths of these two drivers that morning. After talking with them we both had the exact same idea in our heads before we even got to tell each other.

Aaric Gerling son of the legendary wheelstander Aaron Gerling was the happiest kid on the property totally into everything going on. He was bummed his Jr race was canceled the weekend before but made sure to tell us he brought it with him to the event just incase… Aaron had hinted about making a pass possibly if there was time so we decided to open the show with the new kid in town! He lettered up the Hotrod with his own FSC banners and hung his new Hotrods by Havliks flag off the back and was ready! He did a great job staging and letting it eat sending a warning to all future competitors. The rest of the event he was seen popping wheelies everywhere trying to race every one he could on cloud 9. lol That will be a memory we all will never forget!

The next pass was from the heart! The crew walked up holding hands behind Scott Williams 65’ Chevelle as he gets ready to make a very special pass in memory of his wife Kelly. This was her favorite track and something we felt needed to happen in her honor. The sunset with the crew lined up behind the car and Scott’s Chevelle hanging tires was a perfect picture for the moment!

We were honored to have these two drivers make the opening passes at this year’s event!

Thank you Mrhydephoto for catching these moments in time!
