The track dragging equipment is a little more sophisticated at Irwindale.
Track workers put a compound of rosin called "Gold Dust" down to increase traction. This means wheelies.
Today they are running Jr. Dragsters for ages under 16 yrs.
Girls race too!
The engines run on alcohol and start out as 5 hp Briggs and Straton's. Lots of modifications.
Oh yeah, the big cars get to race too!
