The Wednesday Night Drags – Street Legal Style program is a chance for anyone with a street legal car, truck or motorcycle to race on BIR’s world-class drag strip. Full use of the Christmas tree, burn-out box and the scoreboard. We even have an announcer calling all the action.
This will also be your first of 4 opportunities to take part in our Intro to Drag Racing Class presented by B.I.G. Performance Solutions. The objective of this class is to bring new enthusiasts into the sport of drag racing by removing the nervousness of learning as you go or self-teaching like many have done in the past.
INTRO TO DRAG RACING DATES:
– MAY 8th
– MAY 22nd
– JULY 3rd
– AUGUST 28th
This class will introduce the following:
– Drag Strip / Drag Racer safety
– Required vehicle safety
– Christmas Tree breakdown
– Starting line explanation
– Basic timing system explanation
– Return road procedure
– Time slip breakdown
After the classroom portion (approx. 30 min) the class will be brought to the track and will be able to stage and react by foot to the live Christmas Tree. Following the first tree experience the students will have the opportunity to be the first through tech, which would allow them the first opportunity down the track. The instructor will watch and be available for questions after the first pass. At this point, the class has concluded, and the racers are now participating with other entrants of the Wednesday Night Street Legal event.
Class starts at 3pm and Pre-Registration is required to take part in the class. Register for Intro to Drag Racing Here
