Legal alternative to street racing offered at Las Vegas Motor Speedway

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) - With street racing not slowing down amid the pandemic, some groups are now encouraging legal forms of street racing.

Those with the need for speed can curb the desire at a special event at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where the facility says anyone can race in a safe environment.

As part of the “Summit Racing Equipment Mayhem Street-Legal Drags at The Strip,” professional and amateur drivers can legally satisfy their need for speed.

Organizers encourage “enthusiasts to race each other on the safer confines of its NHRA-sanctioned, quarter-mile drag strip.”

The speedway says the event is open to all licensed and registered street-legal vehicles.
