RPM Barona Drags

  • Barona Drag Strip 1750 Wildcat Canyon Road Lakeside, CA, 92040 United States (map)

Since year one of rpm nationals we’ve been asked about running later overheads, the answer at RPM nats at Santa margarita ranch has always been “no”. Simply put RPM at the ranch will always be a flathead v8 and banger only race, that was our original goal and we’re stuck in our ways but since “you asked for it” we decided to look into a venue that can accommodate faster cars. What we found was Barona drag strip in San Diego county, it has that old timey feel but is setup with all the safety requirements to run faster cars. So we’re introducing the “you asked for it drags” .

At this event, our owner Matthew will be racing his very own 1929 Model A “Cuban Pete.” Our tech Rick will also be racing his Model A “Eskimo Pie.” Come on down and watched the show down!
