Drag Racing is a sport for everybody. It is a sport of hand, eye and foot coordination. You can run anything down the racetrack including your mother’s mini van or your father’s super pro 1969 big block Camaro. The classes of Drag Racing are extremely wide ranging to include: jet cars, junior dragster, motorcycles, cars, boats, jet ski’s, monster trucks and even mud vehicles. This is an exhilarating sport for all ages. A regular car off of the showroom floor could show up to a local racetrack and run in the sportsman class while someone with a highly modified Ford Lightning could run in the Top Truck class. It makes no difference if you have a domestic or an import car; there is a class for you. There are rules to follow the faster and more powerful your car becomes but that is for your safety. Everyone is immediately required to pass a technical inspection prior to racing his or her car. This consists of a technical inspector verifying that your vehicle has all of its required factory safety equipment and that you have a Snell approved racing helmet, jeans, covered shoes and a fire retardant jacket. The helmet and jacket can be purchased for under 200 hundred dollars. You are then ready to line up and have a grudge race match against your buddy’s Camaro legally and safely.
