Since the introduction of Junior Dragsters into the National Hot Rod Association in 1992, thousands of kids have gotten the chance to become competitors in the sport of drag racing. Competition at hundreds of tracks across North America, as well as larger national events just for junior dragsters, have proved a springboard for racing careers, world champions, and a second class, Junior Street, that’s been incorporated into select drag-and-drive events.

Junior Dragsters have been a big force behind not only a new wave of racers competing, but also the second, third and even fourth-generation of a family getting into the sport.

With the success of Junior Dragster, the NHRA introduced the Junior Street class to give thirteen-sixteen year old boys and girls a chance to compete in a street-legal car or truck with an adult co-driver as their teammate.

It’s the time of year for some of the biggest sales, with Black Friday and Cyber Monday less than a week away from us. Car builds are underway, thoughts of holiday gifts are on the minds of thousands, and enthusiasts are looking for deals to be had. Sick the Magazine knows all three of these situations, and we’re doing something no one else has ever done!

“It seems like most companies wait for Black Friday to get into the big sales mode,” said Tom Bailey. “We do things a little differently at Sick the Mag, so we expanded our sale from a couple days to a full ten days!” Can you fathom it - 10 days of unbeatable savings on Sick the Mag gear!

The unique Sick BBQ / Ice Cream truck has had two teams of people navigate the Sick Week and Sick Summer events this year, and we're offering the chance to jump onboard again!

With the upcoming Edelbrock Sick 66 event just a couple weeks away, the passenger seat of the Sick BBQ / Ice Cream truck is open for someone to join us for Sick 66!

The second of two Sick the Magazine drag-and-drive shootouts on the 2024 schedule rolled into Summit Motorsports Park for the NMCA All-American Nationals presented by Mickey Thompson Tires and Wheels last weekend.

With an all-star cast including Tom and Aydan Bailey, Steve and Kyle Morris, and four drivers out of Big 3 Racing (Kevin Hansinger, Bob Hess, Chuck Stefanski and Rick Trunkett), it was a solid show.

2024 has been epic for Sick the Magazine - we’ve done two great events - Sick Week and Sick Summer - and done three vehicle giveaways. But we’re not even close to done for the year, and here’s our next vehicle giveaway: this 1962 Chevy II Gasser!

So an epic vehicles - the Sick the Mag Ute - has been claimed; what’s next? We have an announcement coming on Monday, July 29th on our next big giveaway!  

Following a successful first year in joining forces with the National Muscle Car Association (NMCA), Sick the Magazine returns to the NMCA event series with a pair of drag-and-drive shootout appearance in 2024.

Six days of driving and racing reached the ultimate conclusion last night, as the tenth running of Rocky Mountain Race Week Presented by Sick the Magazine hit the finish line at Tulsa Raceway Park in Oklahoma.

After five days of racing and driving, Rocky Mountain Race Week 1.0 has one final drive today, back to where it all started, Tulsa Raceway Park in Oklahoma for a packed final day of crowning winners and racing action.

The drag-and-drive community can get a harsh reminder that just surviving the week is the top task. Then again, Rocky Mountain Race Week 1.0 is still seeing some competitors clocking insane times, and the index classes continue to be close battle grounds.

To kick off the 2024 Rocky Mountain Race Week, Tulsa Raceway Park hosted 314 vehicles and 12 motorcycles on Sunday. With racing activities completed that evening, the Monday ‘workload’ would be who could survive 350-ish miles from Oklahoma to Texas to stage up on Tuesday for day two of racing, and day three of the week.

The second major drag-and-drive to hit the scene, Rocky Mountain Race Week, celebrates its tenth year of holding at least one event each year in 2024. The first of two to be held this year, RMRW 1.0 Presented by Sick the Magazine features new tracks, as well as some new competitors, and kicked off Sunday June 23rd.

The trophy matters. It can be a standard award store trophy, or a 6-foot-tall check, but the cool thing is you get to have something to recall the experience and the memories. The money comes and goes, but the awards, trophies, memories and friendships are what to reflect on.

Offering a product catalog that is nearly 100-percent ‘Made in the USA’ sourced, Motion Raceworks has shown to be one of the companies in it for the long haul for not only the drag-and-drive community, but automotive enthusiasts in all walks of life.

This Pontiac Fiero is a true time capsule of the 1980s. A mid-engine, 4-cylinder, 2-seater still sporting an all-original look and layout, and we recently handed over the keys in our fourth car giveaway!

Tom Bailey has tested and raced at Milan Dragway a bunch, and wanted to do more to support a local track. “We want to give back to the sport and the tracks that have created some amazing memories for us.”
