US 131 Motorsports Park offers racing to even our youngest fans in the Junior (Jr.) Dragster Division for ages 8-17 years old. Jr. Dragsters are half scale dragsters driven by boys and girls ages 8-17 utilizing the 1/8th mile. These cars are often powered by five horse engines pushing these young racers down the track at sub eight- second times at almost 90 mph. The competition amongst the Jr. Dragster racers is very close.
