Thursday Night Street Drags

Street Drags are a great opportunity for anyone to drag race their own car, truck, suv, van, motorcycle, atv on our 300-foot dragstrip utilizing the front stretch of the racetrack. Competitors will be broken into brackets, so you will race with vehicles like yours! Side by side fun in your own lane! We always like to say, if it has wheel, we have a bracket for you!

Brackets include (but are not limited to) Open Class, Cycles, Detroit Iron, Family Sedans, Forced Air, Domestic Performance, 2WD Trucks, Electric, SUV, ATV, Side by Side, Euro Performance, Tuners, 4WD Gas, 4WD Diesel, and High School!

The fun doesn’t end there! Also, part of every Street Drag event is our Shine ‘n Show car show contest where you can showcase your hot rod as well as the Burnout Contest where you can be the burnout champion for the night!
