The smell of fuel and the sound of revving engines will excite even the most stoic family members. Drag racing is a fun, affordable form of entertainment for the entire family. Sullen teenagers and bickering siblings will be too caught up in the excitement and magic of drag racing to remember that they “don’t like” family time. If you time your visit right, you might even get to say junior racers who will definitely enthrall the youngest members of the family.
A night at the local drag racing strip can entertain your family for only a few dollars. Many tracks have family theme nights for Halloween and the start and end of the season, as well as bleachers and a chance to talk to professional drag racers. Take advantage of on-site concession stands with nachos and hot dogs or bring a cooler to barbecue food for a fun family activity. Tracks will always have an ambulance crew happy to chat with interested kids, and some will have firefighters on hand as well. Some drag racing strips will even let you run the family car or motorcycle for a few dollars. You can’t go wrong with a family trip to the drag racing strip.
