Common questions
Is a race on DragJunkie definitely happening?
Listings come from tracks, promoters and their websites. Things change, so check with the track before you travel. If you follow the race or mark it Going, we send an email alert when its date or track changes or it is cancelled.
Does DragJunkie cost anything?
No. Browsing, accounts, alerts, listing races and claiming a track are all free.
Can I buy tickets on DragJunkie?
No. Buy tickets from the track or promoter; their website is on the race and track pages.
Does tapping Going buy a ticket?
No. It only saves the race to your list and sends you a reminder. Buy tickets from the track or promoter.
What is the difference between Interested and Going?
Both save the race and get you a reminder. Going tells the promoter you plan to be there; Interested means maybe.
A race is wrong or missing. How do I tell you?
Use Contact at the bottom of any page and pick “Listing correction”. Include the race name and date.
How do I delete my account?
Account → Account settings → Delete account. Type DELETE and confirm. This cannot be undone.
