I57 Drag and Drive Completes Their Second Year With A New Class, A New Track, and All New Winners After 3 Days Between Illinois and Indiana!
After a solid start with the 2025 edition of I57 Drag and Drive, the event returned for their second edition in 2026 with a new track in the rotation, and a new class was added to the roster.
Based around a three day format, I57 Dragstrip moved from the middle track in 2025, to the host track this time around, and would put a new track in the middle, Wabash Valley Dragway in Indiana, before returning to Illinois and I57 for the final day and to crown champions.
The First I57 Drag and Drive Event Is In The Books - Kyle Bemount Leads Winners List from Illinois
More than a dozen new drag and drive events have been announced or hosted in 2025, and this past weekend had two of them.
The I57 Drag and Drive, centered on a three-day format and based at Coles County Dragway USA in Charleston, Illinois, would do just over 330 miles on the street between Coles Cunty Dragway and I57 Dragstrip.
Originally scheduled to be two days of racing, Coles County jumped into the mix for Saturday, August 23rd, upping the fun to three days of racing.
