BIR plans for return of sport compact drag racing

KwatkowskiBrainerd International Raceway has added the Modern Automotive Performance Proving Grounds event to its schedule again this year. It is scheduled for June 26-27.

Last year's inaugural event was very successful, attracting racers from as far away as Illinois and Michigan. In all, more than 100 import and sport cars competed in drag racing, drifting, autocross and a car show. There was a mix of front-wheel-, all-wheel- and rear-wheel-drive cars, most of which were turbo-charged imports.

driftThe Quick 16 Class on the drag strip was won by Kevin Kwatkowski and his '91 Plymouth Laser, which dominated the drag racing program with the quickest time and fastest run of the weekend: 8.456 seconds and 167.07 mph. 

As more details of this year's event becomes available, we'll add them to this page. Check back here often.
