Drag Races with Dream Rides of TN


John Jessup, of Dream Rides of Tennessee, first experienced drag racing about 10 years ago. With life getting in the way, he didn't get to drag race for about seven years until his love for drag racing reignited at the annual free BAKER drags last August. The newly ignited love for the strip spawned his Drag Race Nights at the Knoxville Dragway.

These monthly Drag Race Nights are a great place to watch races, to learn how to drag race, and to beat your buddies on the track!

Read Michelle's conversation with John about the event and his experience with drag racing!
