Irwindale, California
Facebook Twitter

The EMPI sponsored Hot VWs Drag Day is an event held twice a year in Southern California. Geared more toward the motor head VW Junkie, the HOT VWs Drag day has much to offer for every kind of VW Enthusiast. Of course there is the action packed 1/8th mile drag racing that takes place, which on some days can attract over 100 racers at any given event. Although there is no official "car show" at this event, we do offer a preferred parking "Show & Shine" area for any VW just behind the grandstands. The Drag Day also offers a huge Swap Meet that seems to keep getting larger as each year passes. Overall the Drag Day is a fun event no matter what you like about Volkswagens. Whether you're into racing or want to catch a good deal in the Swap Meet, the Drag Day has lots to offer.
