If you heard of Raceworzs , then it reminds you of Fast and the Furious Movie from the original series where the movie started a frenzy of Modifications and customization in the import scene after its release. This event is based off of what it is all about. Drag Racing, Car shows , music and enjoyable environment.
We were able to enter this year Raceworzs 2017 Sacramento Raceway with KRC Modified 02R Mazda Rx-7 and Mercury GT3 Z33 Nissan 350z.
Raceworzs also has guest appearances this year with Actors Johnny Strong and Noel G ” Hector”. Famous for their lines in the First Fast and Furious Movie. Cult classic to all car enthusiast having remember the lines from the movie script.
We recently finished a new livery on the Mercury GT3 demo z33 350z car. We gave it the mercury colors and a throwback for a new refresher.

Street class cars lined up for their turns to go through the quarter mile. There is a ton of things going on at one time its easily to be able to miss some good action.
there were also a few crashes, in drag racing even if its in a straight line . there is a possibility to hit the wall. setting up your car is absolute that you car may be always pass the line. It does hurt to see it in the wall with all the hard work put into these cars.
