IHRA Junior Dragster License Portal is Now Open

FAIRFIELD, Ohio — The International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) portal for Junior Dragster licenses is now open.

Go to the following link: https://ihra.tracksideapp.com/junior-dragster-license to sign up for the 2025 season. This is a NEW system without historical data so it’s necessary to enter all of the required information. Next season will be streamlined with pre-filled renewal forms.

The IHRA previously announced significant purse increases for the IHRA Summit Team Finals and IHRA Summit SuperSeries World Finals. It includes $3,000 for the Junior champions at Team Finals and $1,000 for the runner-up. The purse for 2025 IHRA Summit SuperSeries Junior World Champions are $10,000 with $4,000 for the runner-up.

Have the following items ready to upload — Junior Driver’s License (if Elite), Junior Licensing Run Form, Junior’s Birth Certificate and Legal Custody Documents (if applicable).

Follow the instructions on the page to get your Junior Dragster license. The parent/legal guardian agreement must be completed including that both parent/legal guardian signatures are notarized and mailed to IHRA.

The Junior Dragster license must be completed on the Junior’s account (not the parent’s account) and the e-mail must be exclusive to the Junior racer. Please note, everyone MUST have their own user account! No sharing accounts. Memberships and event registrations are tied to each individual’s user account.

If you have a question, Please check the Membership FAQ.

Thank you for your patience. We look forward to a great season as these young racers compete at their local tracks and then for record payouts at the IHRA Team and World Finals.
