On September 20, 2025, Longhorn International Motorsports proudly joined racers, fans, and community members at the 4th Annual Hood 2 Hood Picnic at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, Texas. The event, organized and promoted by Ethan Williams, a respected advocate of the local drag racing community and representative of Nitrous Outlet, brought together amateur racers from across Texas and surrounding states for a full day of grassroots motorsports.
The Hood 2 Hood Picnic has quickly become one of the most anticipated gatherings in the Texas drag racing scene. Featuring amateur competition on a professional drag strip, the event gives everyday enthusiasts the opportunity to experience side-by-side racing in a safe, controlled, and family-friendly environment. Beyond the track, the picnic atmosphere includes food, vendors, and camaraderie among fans who share a love for speed and horsepower.
Representatives from Longhorn International Motorsports attended to support the mission of the event: providing a positive outlet for racers and growing the motorsports community. The atmosphere was electric as drivers tested their skills and showcased their builds in front of passionate fans.
Mack Jones, Director of Track Operations at Longhorn International Speedway, emphasized the importance of events like Hood 2 Hood, stating:
“The Hood 2 Hood Picnic is about more than racing—it’s about creating a safe place for enthusiasts to feed their need for speed. By hosting these competitions on a professional track, events like this reduce the dangers of illegal street racing and give drivers a chance to be celebrated for their passion in the right environment.”
Longhorn International Motorsports is committed to supporting grassroots events that keep the spirit of racing alive while encouraging safety, community, and innovation. The 4th Annual Hood 2 Hood Picnic exemplifies how motorsports can unite people across neighborhoods and generations.
LIM congratulates Ethan Williams and all the racers who participated in this year’s event and looks forward to seeing the Hood 2 Hood Picnic continue to grow in the years ahead.
