Our Mission
To grab the interest and enlighten aspiring and entry level drag racers, fundamentally preparing tomorrow's drag racers for the future.

Is There a Need for This?
Drag strips first began sprouting up across America in the mid-1950s.  Their purpose was to give young hot rodders a place to safely push their brute machines to the limit.  These drag strips need the support of racers and fans to keep their gates open.  The need for drag strips is as great today as it was 60-years-ago.  Unfortunately, illegal street racing still exists, endangering racers and innocent bystanders on public roads.

AtTheDragStrip.com is designed to educate and enlighten future drag racers.  Transforming illegal street racers into drag racers and encouraging hot rodders of all types to drag race safely in a controlled environment.

A racer's first drag strip experience can be intimidating and perhaps confusing enough to scare them from ever giving the drag strip a chance.  Our goal is to prepare aspiring and entry level drag racers for an enhanced drag strip experience.

But We Also Cater to the Seasoned Racer
In-depth articles, feature racer write-ups and LIVE drag racing event reports give veteran drivers and fans the information they need.  While we don't offer the breaking news and round-by-round results like other websites, we do offer our users the opportunity to speak their minds, share stories and show off photos of their race cars.  We also post hundreds of photos from national level races.

Don't Forget the Drag Strips
Our Drag Strip Network is a small but growing list of drag strips who contribute to AtTheDragStrip.com.  Their forthcoming events are listed in our At The Drag Strip This Weekend department and have their contact information and full season schedules posted on AtTheDragStrip.com


AtTheDragStrip.com began as a semester long project for an E-Business Management course at Illinois State University.  After generating interest and mild noteriety, AtTheDragStrip.com founder and chief editor, Randy Simpson, unvieled AtTheDragStrip.com in April, 2010.
