The Mid-West Drag Racing Series presented by J&A Service is bringing the heat this Fourth of July weekend! Taking place at World Wide Technology Raceway just outside of St. Louis, Missouri, in conjunction with the KSHE Night of Fire & Thunder spectacular, the world’s most incredible doorslammers and more will go head-to-head on June 30-July 1, 2023.

There’s simply no better way to celebrate America’s birthday, and the incredible gift of freedom that the country gives to its people, than with some high-horsepower drag racing and a hefty dose of adrenaline.

In addition to the fan favorite Pro Modified category screaming across the finish line at 200+ mph, the event will also showcase the wild Alcohol Funny Car class and True Nostalgia Super Stocks, a throwback to the golden age of drag racing, along with special features such as an exlucsive MWDRS Pro Mod driver autograph session, Larsen Motorsports’ jet-powered dragsters making earth-shaking exhibition runs, and spectacular 15-minute fireworks show on Saturday night to cap it all off.

The action-packed holiday event is the perfect way for families to start their celebrations on Independence Day weekend, especially as students ages 13-17 can enjoy half-price admission while kids ages 12 and under get in free.

The Mid-West Drag Racing Series + KSHE Night of Fire & Thunder Spectacular will be shown live RIGHT HERE from World Wide Technology Raceway on June 30-July 1.
