Street Car Braggin’ Rights Race is Back Bigger and Better for 2023

Local racer-turned-promoter Nate Prater’s first-ever Street Car Braggin’ Rights race in June of 2022 was so hugely successful that he’s bringing it back for a second installment. Street Car Braggin’ Rights ‘23 Presented by Vengeance Racing will be held over the weekend of May 4-6, 2023 at Carolina Dragway “The House of Hook” in Aiken, South Carolina, with an incredible $43,000+ (and growing) in guaranteed payouts for SCBR participants.

On Friday, May 5, street car performance potential is highlighted as the racing heats up. A hybrid of bracket and index racing where drivers can dial in their own time in 0.5-second intervals, the 64-car field of the Street Car Shootout class lets enthusiasts show off their street-driven machines on a level playing field. In 2022, James Chavis won the class with his 1973 Chevrolet Nova and he will be back in 2023 to defend his hard-earned title.
