    STREET LEGAL RACING

    May 12 - September 30, 2023

    Presented by JB’s Power Center

    The NHRA-sanctioned 1/4 mile drag strip at RAD Torque Raceway is home to one of Canada’s fastest-growing factions of street rods and sport compact cars. Since the inception of the “Fast and The Furious” sub-culture, the demand for extreme sports is ever-increasing. Competitors and spectators jump at the chance to see their friends, family, and adversaries compete in the quarter mile. RAD Torque Raceway works very closely with the Leduc RCMP, Stony Plain RCMP, Edmonton Police Service, and numerous local high schools to not only promote the sport but to encourage young street racers to take their passion for speed to a safe environment.

    The Pride of our Park! Our Street Legal Safety through Education racing program is designed to encourage “Speed” in a safe, controlled, and fun environment taking it off the streets. In partnership with the Edmonton Polices Services Blue Line Racing program and the RCMP Y.I.E.L.D. (Youth Initiative for Education in Lifestyle & Driving). 

    BRACKET DRAGS

    The Bracket Drag Series combined with the NHRA Division 6 regional competition is the weekly series where local sportsman racers vie for year end points championship. Electronics, Non-electronics, Top Eliminator, Cash is King 1/8 Mile and Jr. Dragster classes all compete regularly throughout the season for admiration amongst their piers and the Championship Trophy.

    Special Regional NHRA Series: Land of the Leaders, King of the Track, Junior Champion and Member Madness.

    NITRO RATZ JUNIOR DRAGSTER ASSOCIATION

    Fueling our passion for motorsports, 19 years ago, in partnership with a dedicated group of parents, a non-profit organization was created to develop a local racing division for children ages 7-17. The Nitro Ratz Junior Dragster Association is a group of dedicated kids, families, and volunteers who promote early respect for automobiles and safe driving skills, sportsmanship, camaraderie, team spirit, and lifelong friendships. We are proud to have raised over $120,000 for the youth racing program over the past 12 years. Junior drag racing offers kids ages 7-17 the opportunity to experience the thrill of racing half-scale dragsters in a controlled racing environment. The cars that competitors race are called Jr. Dragsters and are half-scale versions of Top Fuel dragsters. Using a five-horsepower, single-cylinder engine, a Jr. Dragster can go as fast as 85 mph and as quick as 7.90 seconds in an eighth-mile.
