A Message to Our Racing Community:
First and foremost I'm dedicated to keeping the sport of drag racing alive in our area.
However..
I want to take a moment to speak openly about the current state of local drag racing and our operation at Interstate Raceway.
Grassroots drag racing operates on extremely tight margins. Across the country, tracks are facing rising costs related to insurance, safety requirements, staffing, and ongoing facility maintenance. This is not unique to one track — it is a challenge affecting the sport as a whole.
At this time, we are financially strained while doing everything possible to maintain a safe, professional, and competitive racing environment. Entry fees and ticket sales alone do not cover the full cost of operating a drag strip at the level racers and fans expect.
Sponsorships and community support are essential to keeping local drag racing alive. Contributions go directly toward safety improvements, event quality, staffing, and the long-term future of the program.
We are deeply grateful for our partners, racers, fans, and supporters. For those interested in helping, our official sponsorship opportunities are outlined below.
