The Fall Automotive Swap Meet & Drag Races returns to Firebird on Saturday, September 26.
This event is open to all automotive related items (new, used, barn fresh, you name it). You can sell your car, your truck, your parts, your collectibles and more.
Please take note: vendor space is only available (in advance) ONLINE for this year’s Fall Automotive Swap Meet.
10′ x 20′ spots run $30 (in advance, $35 day of event). The event does require each vendor to fill out a ST-124 Idaho State Sales Tax form (at the gates upon arrival). Space will be designated by the parking team in the pit area on a first-to-arrive basis.
In addition to the Fall Swap, a full day of high-powered Drag Race action will be contested, too. Drag race classes include: Super Pro, Pro, Sled/Bike, Sportsman and Jr. Street. Additionally, the 100 MPH King Kong runoff and Open Comp classes will be offered. Open testing will also be available to those seeking more track time.
Swap meet set-up begins by noon on Fri., Sept. 25. Note: gates may open earlier pending the line-up of vendor on the Firebird entrance roadway. Vendor set-up (and racer pre-parking) will be open Friday until 7 pm.
Saturday opens for vendors and racer pit parking at 7:30 am. The Swap Meet traditionally continues throughout the afternoon until about 4 pm. The racing event will continue until around 6:30 pm.

Important Information to read pertaining to our Events
Similar to our early season events, participants and attendees will be asked to comply with the following protocols:
- Racers and their crew will be required to park according to social distancing guidelines, which means a 6-foot minimum space will be required between all parking spaces.
- The Firebird team, which includes our staff and officials, will be encouraged to wear face coverings (and gloves where necessary). Additionally, the Firebird team will make regular use of hand sanitizer, conveniently located throughout the facility.
- Participants and crew members are encouraged to utilize face coverings when away from their pit area transport/trailer.
- Tech inspection will be available for the race car driver and up to one crew member per entry. Racers and crew person will be encouraged to wear face coverings during Tech inspection.
- We encourage filling out our ONLINE TECH CARD at your computer and printing to bring to the track.
- The Race Control Tower will be limited to essential track staff only.
- All of Firebird’s restrooms are equipped with hand sanitizer dispensers, soap, and hand pumice cleaner. Restrooms will be sanitized before, during and at the conclusion of the race day. Free-standing hand sanitizer dispensers are positioned in many key locations for convenient access by staff, racers and crew.
- Firebird’s Food & Beverage stand will follow all guidelines in place for food service businesses. A limited menu of packaged food items, along with beverages will be available. Condiments will be provided in packets, rather than self-service stations. We recommend that food and beverage orders be taken back to pit area for consumption. The patio picnic tables have been moved to storage until further notice.
- The Sport Shop will be open and anyone entering the Sport Shop will be required to follow social distancing guidelines, and our staff will be sanitizing surfaces.
- Social distancing protocols of a minimum of 6 feet will be strictly enforced in the staging lanes and on the starting line. Congregating in groups along the staging lane fence, on the starting line or in the pita area will not be permissible. Our track staff and Firebird Safety Team will closely monitor these areas in order to prevent unauthorized gatherings.
- Each racer is required to pre-purchase your race number online in advance of the event (if you do not currently maintain a NHRA number).
As we have mentioned in previously (and just as a reminder), the Firebird staff and management encourage everyone to be familiar with each and every policy outlined above. We will respectfully enforce such policies for the safety, health and well being of all of our guests, crew and track staff.
In the event of inclement weather, updates will be available on this site and on our Facebook page.
