Gas Magazine and KZN Drag Racing have come together to create a competitive drag racing list to give our fellow racers a benchmark to shoot for, and after two months of sleepless nights sorting through years of results and at least a thousand phone calls later, that list is finally a reality!
Featuring 15 competitive classes that all drag racers can relate to, #TheList is the first of its kind in Kwa-Zulu Natal and is definitely a step forward for our legal drag racing scene. As it becomes more competitive with each race, Gas Magazine and KZN Drag Racing hopes to get the opportunity to take the top 3 racers from each class to race among South Africa's finest for the very first time.
To qualify for #TheList, you would need to post a competitive drag time with proof of your results as reference. Please note that this list is open only to KZN residents for obvious reasons.
Without further adieu, here is #TheList as it currently stands in October 2017:
