POWERfest at Rockingham Dragway – Be Part of the Show! June 13–14, 2025 | Rockingham, NC
Get ready for POWERfest, the ultimate horsepower-fueled weekend where racing meets reality TV—happening June 13–14 at the legendary Rockingham Dragway! Brought to you by POWERtube TV, this two-day motorsports festival is more than just a race—it’s a live TV production, and you could end up on screen.
Throughout the weekend, multiple TV shows will be filmed live on-site, including:
- PINKS 2.0 – The return of the iconic automotive TV series that started it all. Now reimagined with a high-stakes King of the Hill format, one racer will take home all the pink slips—and all the rides. That’s right, one driver could win up to seven cars and keep their own. Hosted by Bruno Massel, this is the main event everyone’s talking about.
- PINKS Border Budget Buildoff – An international showdown between viral stars Justin “Danger” Nunley (USA) and Shaun “No Way” Umscheid (Canada). They’ll go head-to-head in a low-budget build battle that ends in a live race—and the loser hands over their car to a lucky fan in the crowd!
- Wrecked to Race – Two veteran builders. Two junkyard wrecks. Just 48 hours to build race-ready cars and go head-to-head for pinks in front of a live crowd.
- The Call Out – The no-prep, small tire shootout where social media smack talk ends and real racing begins. You’ll see some of the baddest racers battle it out on the POWERfest strip—and it’s all being filmed for TV.
- The POWERfest Special – PTTV’s cameras will be rolling all weekend to capture the full festival experience—from racers and fans to show cars and behind-the-scenes action. This is your chance to be part of a nationally streamed special on POWERtube TV!
Also happening throughout the weekend:
- Premier Mega Truck Exhibitions – These 1,000+ HP monsters will tear up the strip and wow fans with high-octane passes and a full display in the vendor midway.
- Power Wheels Kids Competition – Fun, safe, and fast—mini racers take to their own track!
- Gassers Match Racing – Eight classic gassers throwing down with exhibition passes all weekend long.
- NOPI Car Show – Presented in partnership with Sam Mahdavi (Sam’s Garage / Lokar Car Show TV) and filmed for his national series, this show features the best in Classic, Modern, and Import builds.
Whether you're racing, showing off your ride, bringing the family, or just want to see what it’s like to be on a TV set, POWERfest is your all-access pass to motorsports, media, and mayhem. Experience the action. Be part of the show. Only at POWERfest.
