Texas Motorplex is adding the premium Austrian vodka brand NEFT Vodka as the featured Vodka to its growing roster of marketing partners for the Stampede of Speed and NHRA Texas Fall Nationals, October 3-12, 2025. The ten-day multi-faceted event will showcase NEFT Vodka’s premium experience, highlighted by the exclusive two-story NEFT Vodka mobile bar and lounge with specially curated cocktails available throughout the event. NEFT Vodka will be at the heart of the concert and racing action, featuring multiple signature beverages for fans from across the country to enjoy.
“We are thrilled to have NEFT Vodka become an integral part of the Stampede of Speed and the NHRA Texas Fall Nationals,” said Christie Meyer Johnson, Texas Motorplex co-owner. “The premium experience is something that we have been growing at the Stampede of Speed, from VIP access to preferred ticketing and parking. NEFT Vodka delivers those special moments for our guests who are looking for refreshing cocktails.”
NEFT Vodka is no stranger to motorsports, as the brand currently sponsors the Visa Cash Cash App Racing Bulls Formula 1 Team as well as the Formula Drift Series. This collaboration marks NEFT’s first foray into NHRA drag racing and is a natural extension of the brand’s involvement in the sport. The vodka is packaged in a distinctive white or black lightweight metal barrel that helps keep the liquid cold for hours. Crafted with non-GMO rye and Alpine spring water, it delivers smooth, characterful flavor with no additives.
"At NEFT Vodka, we know that precision and performance aren’t just for the track—they’re in every sip," said Jeff Mahony, CEO, NEFT Vodka. "Partnering with Texas Motorplex lets us bring the same adrenaline, focus, and craftsmanship of NHRA drag racing to our fans, serving up premium cocktails as bold and exhilarating as the races themselves."
NEFT Vodka will be featured in two cocktails at the track, including NEFT Vodka Electric Lemonade and NEFT Vodka & Soda, designed to elevate the overall fan experience. Whether enjoying a drink in the VIP suites or relaxing at the trackside bars, NEFT Vodka will bring a new level of enjoyment to motorsport enthusiasts.
With major playoff implications on the line in Dallas, the race will serve as a showcase to a massive national audience as part of the FOX broadcast. The Stampede of Speed will feature a country music festival headlined by Pat Green, Chris Young and Clint Black, along with bull riding, a fan fest, magical lantern releases and more welcoming fans from across the country to celebrate the best of Texas, blending motorsports, music, and unforgettable experiences into one incredible event.
