Why you need to be here: “Throwdown has become a nationally recognized, can’t-miss event,” said Keith Haney, co-owner, Tulsa Raceway Park. “Whether you’re a fan or a racer, you’ve need to make plans to be a part of this event. Fans have come to expect a thrilling, diverse show at the Throwdown, and they absolutely pack the place. Racers come from all over the country because they want to put on a great show in front of a huge crowd. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.”
“You never know who or what you’re going to see at the Throwdown,” Haney said. “We’ve had the Street Outlaws guys, we’ve had Top Fuel dragsters, and Scott Palmer’s ‘Studezilla’ Top Fuel Pro Mod. We always try to bring in different things like that to make the show even more exciting, especially for the kids.”
“You can’t beat Pro Mods and Funny Cars running in the 3.50-second range at well over 200 mph,” said Todd Martin, co-owner, Tulsa Raceway Park. “These racers are competing for MWDRS championships, so they’re going to lay it all on the line.”
“There’s something for everyone at the Throwdown, whether you’re coming to the track for the first time or you’ve been a lifelong drag racing fan,” Martin said. “We really crank up the entertainment factor for this race. There’s always something exciting happening on the track, but there’s also fun things to do in the pits. All of the drivers love meeting the fans and signing autographs and the best part is every ticket includes a pit pass.”
Here's what you can expect to see:
Fastest Pro Mods on the planet with the Summit Racing Equipment Mid-West Drag Racing Series
Funny Cars
Top Sportsman and Top Dragsters
Two Junior Drag Racing Classes (ages 6-12 and 13+)
