Description:
It's your turn to experience the thrill of driving a dragster!!

Your 1/2 day course begins with a 1 hour orientation class where you will learn basic safety precautions and operational procedures. When orientation is complete, you will be issued the necessary safety equipment and secured in a state of the art dragster.

As soon as your foot hits the pedal, get ready to leave everyone in the dust as your car accelerates to speeds well over 100 mph in just seconds!

You will make two or three runs (based on the package purchased) with the first run consisting of a long, smokey burnout, launching the car and a 300 foot pass.

The distance of your second run will be determined by your instructor, with all runs being observed by a professional racing instructor.

Choose the option with the Bonus Fantasy Ride and ride passenger in a 2 seat dragster with a professional driver behind the wheel.

Racing doesn't get any better than this!

Thank you to Doug Foley and crew. I have waited 36 years to experience driving a dragster (9.94 @ 130 mph) and it was awesome. I would highly recommend this experience. Can't wait to do it again!

The Drive a Dragster experience was by far the most fun I have ever had behind the wheel of any vehicle ever and honestly can't wait to do it again because I will certainly do it at least one more time. The instructors were extremely knowledgeable and helpful but also very personable. It was easy to tell that they have as much fun with it as anyone that is there for the experience. To me it almost seemed like they were there for their own enjoyment instead of treating it like a job, which in turn made it even more enjoyable for me if it were even possible to be more of a great experience. Thanks Cloud 9
