Junior Dragster

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. There are many girls racing in this division and on the track there is no distinction between the boys and the girls as it is all power!
