Chaos series continues to make
strides and heading into the 2023
Championship season the tour will
expand its geographical footprint
eastward in an exclusive partnership
with Maryland International Raceway.
This five-year partnership names MIR

racers and fans for some CHAOS on
the Atlantic coastline. The date of
August 25-26 th has been set for the
ambush of heads up, run whatcha’
brung funny cars to pack the pits
and pound the ground in Maryland.
“For
years, the east coast fans and
racers have shown great interest in
Funny Car Chaos and we are highly
anticipating our East Coast debut at
Maryland International. There are
dozens of Funny Car teams on the
East Coast who are held back only by
the travel expenses inherited to
participate in our Midwest and
Southwest based series. This event
will give those teams a local Chaos
event and we look forward to making
welcoming lots of new funny car
teams to the Chaos family,” says FCC
founder, Chris Graves.
In the recently completed 2022
season, Funny Car Chaos welcomed a
series high 93 teams who
participated in the nine race tour.
With average car counts pushing 30
plus funny cars per event, this now
seven year old concept has not only
proven its ability to work, but has
also established itself as one of
the most popular independent drag
racing series on the planet.
With no rules in regard to body
style or engine combination, the
door of creativity and ingenuity is
wide open and teams are taking full
advantage. In recent years, the FCC
series has seen a wide array of flip
top floppers with everything from
nostalgia and modern bodied nitro
and alcohol burners sporting
‘standard’ engine combinations to
outlandish twin turbo and nitrous
oxide assisted efforts. It’s a one
stop flopper shop and fans and
racers alike can’t seem to get
enough.

to host the exclusive east coast
Funny Car Chaos event at MIR. This
event will have the largest field on
