NSra Hotrod drags 2017
Rags & Rust took the time out to visit a few Hotrods, Ratrods, Gassers and Funny cars burning rubber on the 1/4 mile at Shakespeare County Raceway in Statford-Upon-Avon (England)
If you like your 50's style cars, polka dot clothes and a friendly atmosphere then this is a great event for you. Accompanying the cars are a good selection of food stalls & vans, parts & merchandise shops, small independent trade stalls & and boot sales dotted around.
Upon entering the car parks and camping areas you are gifted with hundreds of rods and the sweet smell of a mixture of rubber and BBQ's.
The PA system entices you over to the track almost immediately. The announcer/commentator is full of jokes and you cant help but love his enthusiasm. You enter through the pit lanes and waiting areas; this gives you a chance to get very close to the cars and the driver/ crew members who are also only too happy to talk to you and answer any questions you have.
with 6-7 hours of constant drag racing action through out each day, you will get to see it all. From children in little mini Hotrods and Drag cars to 10,000HP Jet Engine Dragsters and everything in between.
Its a petrol heads heaven.
