Welcome to Nitro Ratz Jr Dragster Association!

Junior drag racing isn’t just for kids with racing families — it’s for anyone who’s ready to try something different.


If you're curious but not sure where to start, that’s exactly what we’re here for.


We’ll help you find a car, understand the rules, get licensed, and start racing — step by step.

So What Does It take?

Car

You don’t need a trailer full of tools or a brand-new car to join junior drag racing.
Most Nitro Ratz families start simple — with used cars, shared equipment, and a bit of guidance from the club.

Safety Gear

Drivers need a certified helmet, jacket, pants, gloves, and shoes — all designed for junior drag racing. We’ll help you figure out exactly what’s needed and where to get it.

Time

Racing happens on weekends, with a handful of race dates each season. Some families are at every race, others pick and choose. It’s flexible — you can make it fit your life.

Parental Involvement

A parent or guardian needs to be hands-on — helping in the pits, supporting their racer, and being part of the experience. No racing knowledge required — just a willingness to learn.

Licensing

Junior drivers need to pass a licensing process (NHRA) that includes a basic understanding of the car and the completion of several licensing passes. We’ll walk you through the entire thing.

Ongoing Costs

It’s probably not as expensive as you think. Once you've got your car, you just have to worry about entrance fees and membership.
