Piloted
by Elaine Larsen and teammate Kat Moller, the popular Larsen
Motorsports jet dragsters will make flame- and smoke-filled 280+ mph
passes down the world famous drag strip at Heartland Park.
“These jet dragsters put on an incredible show and are
just another exiting element that we’re adding to the Menards NHRA
Heartland Nationals as we move to bring
even more racing action to the Fastest Drag Strip in the World,” says
Scott Gardner, president and general manager at Heartland Park Topeka.
The amazing jet-powered machines join the list of
strong racing excitement that already includes NHRA’s Top Fuel Harleys,
the J&A Service Pro-Mods and a special
Saturday night concert by national country music touring artist and
Kansas native, Jerrod Niemann.
While jet cars have made exhibition passes at
Heartland Park before, this will mark the return of these wild machines
after a several year hiatus with featured
runs planned for both Friday and Saturday evenings.

“We
are ready to heat things up for the Heartland Nations!” says Elaine
Larsen, driver of the Florida Institute of Technology jet dragster.
“This will be my first time racing at Topeka – I am so excited to be a
part of the 29th annual NHRA national
race at Heartland Park. It will be a “Girl Power” weekend for the jets,
with Kat running the second jet dragster, so you don’t want to miss
this red-hot jet racing action.”
