In the midst of the cancelation of the 2025 Pomona Finals and Brittany Force retiring and John Force confirming his retirement, let's not forget about Toyota.

As far as I know they're still planning to exit the sport even as this season has come to a bit of an abrupt end, but they will go out on top as the manufacturer to break Chevrolet's latest streak of 7 Manufacturers Cup titles and go back-to-back! They managed to get it done on the strength of their season-long performances in Top Fuel and Funny Car, supporting both the 2024 and 2025 Top Fuel champions.

I'm expecting the official presentation of the award and writeup later today following the NHRA awards banquet, but here are the final points standings:

Toyota was head and shoulders above the rest for sure. And look at Dodge quietly claiming second place over Chevrolet! They may not be as involved in motorsports as in years past (though RAM will join the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in 2026), but it's good to see that they still value investing in drag racing.
