On Sunday, April 24th at Kansas City International Raceway, there is a drag race for high school students. The gates open at 8 a.m. and time trials start at 9 a.m. I dont know if anyone that reads this is the KC area and is/has a high school student, but just thought Id post it up here. I think entry is around $15, and a racing helmet is required. Im almsot positive they have them there for rent, but Im not sure on the cost tho. If anyone has/knows a HS students w/ a muscle car, Id love to not be the only one to hopefully brings some credit back to american muscle. www.kcir.net

well i am a HS student but i live in oklahoma an couldnt get to Kansas City! :( :evil: :x :mad: so that sucks!! i want to go it sound like alot of fun though

If they still do it like they used to, all people can race. They just call it the "alumni" class. I raced there when I was in high school when KY102 sponsered the event. Shows my age a little. Don't need a hotrod either, just a DL, a helmet and a seatbelt. It is a lot of fun. Do go if you can.

I would be there with my 1968 Plymouth Barracuda S 408 small block/ 5 speed but high school ran out on me 2 years ago plus I live in Washington, MO. It's about 4.5 hours from KC.

Yeha, I wish my elky would be doen by then, but theres no way.. kidna sucks, but Im still goin to watch, its gonna be, I live in OP which is a richer part of KS, and supposedly this kids dad has a V12 Aston Martin Vanquish, and hes takin it out there, another kids parents supposedly have a Ford GT, kidna takes the fun outta it, if the car doesnt have any meaning to you, but o well.

72, if they aren't going to hardasses about battery hold down clamps and a DOT approved helmet, I'm going to be there!!

haha, Im not sure about the battery clampdowns, but Im pretty sure you need a helmet. I heard they have them for rent, but yeah. The gates open at 8a.m. and the time trials start at 9:30a.m. KCIR High School Drag (http://www.kcir.net/~kcir/content/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=63&Itemid=39)
Theres not a whole lot of info there, but if that helps there ya go. If you do go, what should I be rootin for?

Man the drags were awesome, I saw like prolly 4 or 5 elkys, I think there were all prostreet or modded tho. Um there were actually quite a few muscle cars. Saw some good Camaro/Firebird (LT1 and LS1) vs Stang races (5.0 and 4.6), and of course the chevys owned. I dont knwo why people talk 5.0s up so much there was like 2 or 3 5.0 Cobras and they were gettin rocked. I think the fastest time I saw was a 13.2 in the HS division. It was a sharp LS1 Camaro. But yeah it was lots of fun, if anyone has a HS student, I would sugest letting them go to the one this fall at KCIR.
