NHRA Names Paige Hamlin Member Track Services Coordinator as part of Ongoing Commitment to Local Tracks & Racers

INDIANAPOLIS, IN – November 10, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – As part of NHRA’s continuing effort to invest in and strengthen grassroots drag racing, NHRA officials announced today that Paige Hamlin has been named NHRA Member Track Services Coordinator.

The role will provide additional support to NHRA’s growing member track network, continue strengthening grassroots racing programs like the Summit Racing Series presented by Hoosier, and create more opportunities for NHRA racers across North America.

Hamlin brings a wealth of experience to the position, most recently serving as Division Services Coordinator for NHRA’s South Central and West Central Divisions. She also has extensive knowledge in track relations, event operations and sportsman racing. As a longtime bracket racer, Hamlin also knows the importance of local dragstrips and the crucial roles they serve among racers, families and communities.

“NHRA Member Tracks are the heartbeat of our sport and I’m excited to be part of NHRA’s continued investment in supporting them,” Hamlin said. “Our tracks and racers are the foundation of this sport and my goal is to help strengthen those relationships, provide additional resources and create more opportunities for our racers, tracks and partners across our seven divisions.”

Hamlin will work closely with NHRA’s seven Division Directors and Field Marketing teams to lend support to NHRA Member Tracks, supporting participation in the NHRA racing programs available to local tracks.

Additional initiatives will be supporting the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series and the Summit Racing Series presented by Hoosier, and Member Track Wally Races, along with key items like the Summit Racing Jr. Drag Racing League, the JEGS Allstars and much more.

“We’re excited to expand Paige’s role with our NHRA Member Tracks in this way, as she brings a tremendous amount of experience in so many areas that are critical to the grassroots level,” NHRA Senior Vice President Evan Jonat said.

“She’s built tremendous relationships within our community and with member tracks and racers across our divisions, and this will be a vital role as part of NHRA’s ongoing commitment to the facilities, programs and all the talented competitors at this level.”
