Exotics Rally is well known for organizing exciting events with jaw-dropping autos as well as participating in events such as the Bullrun, which was won by Exotic Rally’s own Seth Rose!

Last weekend, Exotics Rally hosted the ER 1/4 Mile event at Englishtown, New Jersey that featured rubber-burning, reaction-time chasing, heads-up racing with power and grace on display.

Exotics Rally may be known for bringing out some of the rarest, fastest, most beautiful exotics in its events, but this track rental welcomed most cars that were muffled and ready to battle. On this day, there was a mix of American muscle, both old and new, European brawn, and Japanese power. Testing both the vehicle and the drivers behind the wheel, there were grudge racing runs and overall battles that came down to getting the best possible reaction time and sixty-foot. In the end, it was an awesome day of racing with good people, good food and exciting competition. After checking out the coverage, be sure to scroll to the bottom for the full gallery of the Exotic Rally 1/4 Mile event!

Next up on the Exotics Rally events schedule is the Exotics on the Square, where 45th street will be blocked off with Exotics lining Times Square between Broadway and 6th Avenue. This is going down this weekend, August 6th at 7pm.

Two street-tire’d domestics featuring boost. In one lane was a beautiful yellow Saleen and in the other lane was a GTA sporting two gigantic turbines that made some beautiful music going down the strip.

This old school Mustang Shelby GT350 was more than a classic pretty face. She got down and dirty with this particular run taking on an C-class Benz.

Speaking of Mercedes Benz’s, it was quite a scene to see all of the American Muscle taking on the 1320 on street tires, but the majority of Benz’s taking on the competition with slicks…

On this day, Japanese power took home the crown down the 1/4 mile with a host of GTR’s breaking deep into the 10’s on street tires.
Amazing to say the least.

We can’t get enough of the AMG’s! Even with the hot and humid summer weather, we were seeing these luxury sedan’s running low 11’s all night!
