  • What does a no prep track mean?
    A no-prep track means that the race track surface is not sprayed with traction glue ( PJ1, VHT). While that can be beneficial to some cars with High Horsepower, it usually is not good for 95% of that cars that race at our track. Prepping a track with traction glues can often lead to lots of parts breakage and oil downs that cause clean up delays during the events, which would mean not much fun for the racers or spectators. The conditions at Street Legal Dragway are realistic to what "REAL STREET RACING" is ..... on Asphalt. Traction can only be achieved with the racer making changes to suspension, tire pressure and his foot on the pedal....like it should be.
  • Can RACE CARS also race at STREET LEGAL DRAGWAY?
