Motorcycle, drag racing planned this weekend at BIR

Brainerd International Raceway is offering a 2-for-1 event this weekend.

The Central Roadracing Association has motorcycle racing on the new Competition Road Course. It's amateur club racing with different classes racing Friday through Sunday.

On the drag strip is the fifth race in the seven-race Bracket Drag Racing Series. Qualifying starts Saturday, eliminations are Sunday.

Also on Saturday, the King of the Track will be crowned. In each class, the two racers with the most series points will race against each other. Winners will be placed in a 10-driver bracket, with the last driver standing being crowned King of the Track.

Daily admission is $10 for adults, $5 for kids, which gets fans into the track for both races. Tickets are available at the gate.
