What is mud drag racing

One thing that mud racing is not, is boring. Before I had ever seen a mud drag race I had pre-judged and thought I wouldn't like it and it would be boring. In 2009 I started helping a friend of mine who races a mud racer and after my first night of watching the mud drags, I was hooked. To be honest, I never thought of mud racing as something I'd be interested in, as I'm not a big fan of 1/4 mile racing.
I have an 11 year background in local Saturday Night dirt tracks, so I don't know if it's the fact that it's drag racing in the mud or what it is, all I know for sure is that I can't wait for the 2010 season opener for the Lake States Mud Racers.
The Lake States Mud Racers is a local racing organization that serves Northern Wisconsin and Upper Michigan. Races run back to back, fast and smooth. This racing is done right. The Lake States Mud Racers have 5 racing divisions: Street Stock, Super Stock, Womens Super Stock, Mod I, Mod II plus Stock and Unlimited.
So, what is mud drag racing? It's flat out drag racing through a 200 foot long pit filled with about 20 inches of wet, gooey mud. Plus, there are some high powered trucks out there can can be compared to nothing less than 'rockets'.
The season opener for the Lake States Mud Racers will be a first time mud racing event in Sanborn WI on June 12, 2010.
Now of course I can't guarantee that everyone will enjoy the excitement of mud racing but if you're a dirt racing fan and you're sitting at home bored, why not check out a Lake States Mud Racers event, if you're still bored you really haven't lost anything, but who knows, you just may become a new fan.
