ROCKINGHAM — Whether you need to satisfy a personal need for speed or want to test your racing IQ against others with similar skills and interests, Rockingham Dragway is could be your acceleration destination throughout the summer.

Over the next nine Saturdays, the Mass Acceleration Motorsports Street Legal Drags will offer unlimited quarter-mile time runs to those who want to test their limits in a safe and controlled environment — as well as a new competition class offering trophies and cash.

All that’s needed is a vehicle and the urge to test it against either another car, truck, ATV, motorcycle or its own previous performance.

For those who crave a more competitive environment, the new “Rock Street Car Shootout” will be contested each week for trophies and cash. Open to licensed and state-registered cars and motorcycles, the Shootout will be contested at the quarter-mile distance using a dial-your-own elapsed time format.

Cost to take the track is $25 for every car-and-driver combination. Crew and spectator admission is $10 for adults, with kids 12-and-under free. There also will be nightly concession specials.

Street Legal Drags will be held June 24, July 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 and Aug. 5, 12 and 19. Gates will open each Saturday at 5 p.m. with timed runs from 6 p.m. until midnight.
