Welcome to the Garden Isle Drag Racing Association! In this exciting KZfaq video, join Tony Richie as he takes you on a journey to the hidden gem of Kauai Raceway Park, located on the west side of Kauai. Get ready to discover the rich racing culture that dates back to 1971.
Did you know that our track has been a hub of thrilling races for over 50 years? It's not just a track; it's a part of our racing ohana (family). We have pit spaces that have been passed down through three generations. Imagine seeing an eight-year-old grandchild racing a junior dragster while their mom or dad competes in another car, and their granddad races alongside them. It's a true testament to the love for racing that runs in our families.
We're proud to announce that we've recently invested a staggering $1.5 million in a brand-new track surface. But that's not all! We've also upgraded our lighting system with a million dollars' worth of state-of-the-art lights, including a power line from the stadium. The goal is to provide a safe and exciting environment for high school kids to learn and develop their passion for racing at an early age.
You might be surprised to learn that on race day, we have an astonishing 1,500 to 2,000 people in attendance. It's a massive event that draws racing enthusiasts from all over. With seven different racing classes, ranging from Junior Dragsters to top fuel cars reaching speeds of 200 miles per hour, there's something for everyone. We have over 130 different cars tearing down the track, creating an electrifying atmosphere that will leave you in awe.
Whether you have a car from Hertz, Alamo, or anywhere else, bring it along! We welcome all racers, and you don't need to be a professional. Our track is open to anyone who wants to experience the thrill of racing in a safe and controlled environment. Don't worry, we won't tell anyone!
If you're visiting from the mainland, prepare to be amazed. Many are surprised to discover that we have a fully-fledged NHRA race track right here on Kauai. So, if you're ready for an unforgettable experience, come and join us at Kauai Raceway Park. The beautiful sunny weather on the west side awaits you, along with a wide range of racing classes, from street racing to the adrenaline-pumping Top Fuel Dragsters.
