Who’s taking the crown as King of The Strip in 2026
The Dobinsons King of The Strip is rolling back into Willowbank for its fifth year, and it’s shaping up to be the ultimate showdown for anyone who lives for tough rigs, shed-built power, and a bit of good old-fashioned rivalry.
If the smell of burnt rubber, the scream of a turbo, or the thump of a cammed V8 gets your blood pumping, mark 1 August 2026 on the calendar — Willowbank Raceway is where the bragging rights get sorted.
Barra vs LS. TD vs VDJ. KDJ vs 4JJ1.
Bring your mates, bring your pride and joy, and settle the score the proper way — flat-out down the ¼ mile.
With three drag racing classes, a burnout comp, trophies up for grabs and $6,500 in prize money, this is your chance to show what your rig can really do and maybe take home the crown.
