53rd Montana Drag Racers Association
State Convention and Awards Banquet

The 53rd annual Montana Drag Racers Association 2017 season annual meeting and awards banquet will be held at the Red Lion Hotel in Billings, MT Saturday, February 17, 2018.

The convention meetings will discuss new rules and programs for the upcoming racing season and an awards banquet honoring the 2017 winners.  The MDRA promotes safe competition and encourages all Montana racers and dragstrips to work together to improve drag racing in the great state of Montana. The MDRA administers the state points traveling race series. A racer must first register, then compete at least once on a state points race day event at 3 of the 4 Montana tracks to qualify.  The year’s top 3 finishers in each class are awarded cash and trophies for their achievement.
 
NHRA Chassis inspector Dave Schafel will be attending to inspect and certify chassis the weekend of the convention at GM Petroleum, 275 Daniels St, Billings. For an appointment please contact Denton Schillreff at 406-839-0413. Any vehicle running faster than 9.99 (6.40 1/8) must have current certification. NHRA has a limit on the number of cars that can be certified each day so please call ahead and schedule your slot with Dave.
 
The MDRA will be electing or re-electing a new President this year. This is a four-year term. Please give some though to whom you would like to represent MDRA. Racer representatives are elected each year as well.
 
We will be voting for special Awards from the 2017 season: Best Appearing Car, Top Mechanic, Top Driver, Sportsman of the year, Hard Luck. Please consider which people are deserving of these honors. These special awards as well as those of the state point’s winners will be presented at the banquet Saturday night.
 
Registration fees for the convention are $45.00 person before February 9, and $55.00 at the door which includes Lunch Saturday and Dinner at the Champion’s Banquet.
