When you go to an event like Eagle Field Drags and hear that car fire up in the distance, your adrenaline goes up a notch. When you get up to the strip and see, hear and feel the car as it shoots off the starting line, you will be hooked on the drag race scene.

Eagle Field Drags Runway Drags is where the average hotrod enthusiasts can build a hot rod in their garage. Then take it to the strip and see what they have accomplished in building their car. Most of the cars that run out at Eagle Field Drags are garage-built hotrods, most built by the owners, friends, and family, the barter system, or whatever it takes to get that car out on the track.

Some of the cars look new, some look old, and they might not have a perfect paint job or a $20k engine, but they have lots of character, are fast, and are fun to watch. One of the best parts about Eagle Field Drags, there is always a nice variety of vehicles, and you never know what you might see come to race.

You really never know what will be out at Eagle Field Drags racing. During this October event, a new Camaro was racing a 1st generation Camaro; the 1st generation Camaro won that race. The most fantastic-looking dragster Jeeps were also fast; it was a blast watching them run.

There was also Jr dragster racing at this event, now that was interesting to watch the kids racing. The dragsters can reach speeds up to 80 mph to the finish line. Along with the Jr dragsters, there were kids also racing quads.

When you see them preparing for the race, they are entirely in the here and now of what's ahead. The kids concentrate on the race, just like adults preparing to race for the land speed record at El Mirage Land Speed Races.

The quad racers and Jr dragsters' parents are having as much fun as the kids. The parents also take this as seriously as the kids in the driver's seat. They will be right there working on the dragster, turning this, adjusting that as they pull up to the starting line, sometimes giving last-minute guidance as they prepare for the race. Events like this are great for families. The parents are fully engaged with their kids, and the youngsters enjoy the race scene; it's a fun hobby for both the kids and parents.

When you go to Eagle Field Drags as a spectator, the view of the strip is excellent. You can stroll throughout the camp, talk to the owners and check out their cars.

 Be sure to check out the old planes and military trucks. Eagle Field is a historic ww2 training facility. Located in the Central Valley in the heart of California's agricultural area, Eagle Field is the perfect place for an old-school drag race event.
