Experience the thrill of old-school drag racing at the Flashlight Drags, a high-energy event packed with action and entertainment for all ages. The day features head-to-head drag racing, a car show, cruise-in, vendors’ midway, live music, great food, and plenty of family-friendly fun.

Races kick off with a simple flashlight signal—a nod to the early days of underground street racing often seen in classic films. Cars and trucks roar down an eighth-mile airport runway, delivering fast-paced excitement that keeps the crowd on its feet.

What began as a grassroots idea has grown into a safe, controlled environment where drivers can test their skills and settle friendly rivalries without the risks of illegal street racing. The result is a unique blend of nostalgia and adrenaline, capturing the spirit of classic drag racing in a modern, community-focused event.
