Autoholics and Streetfire.net recap on Chicagoland Speedway’s single greatest, drag racing event: King of the Streets, or “KOTS.” A horsepower showdown of legendary proportions, KOTS is a drag race event that brings in everything from alcohol-burning, fox-bodied Mustangs to nitro-burning superbikes.

KOTS, however, is not your usual drag race venue; a grueling competition, KOTS is a showdown featuring 24 cars and 4 bikes, all battling to win a $13,000 jackpot, as if a real pot of gold were waiting at the end of the dragstrip.

King of the Streets is a long-lived tradition, some of the event’s entrees are 5-time repeats while others profess themselves to be first-timers. The venue doesn’t favor a particular make of car, but whether Mustang or Camaro, everyone who runs at KOTS will be dishing-out what they can in order to reach the seemingly unreachable cash prize.

Now, thanks to Whisper Films, you can be in the middle of the tire-smoking action from the comfort of your own living room when you order the King of the Streets video. Whether or not you attended the July event, you can recap on the biggest and baddest drag race event that Chicagoland has to offer.

King of the Streets DVDs can be ordered directly from Whisper Films’ website, and expected delivery time for each video is about 2-3 business weeks. For a small price of $24.99, not including shipping and handling, you can have the best seat in the house for one of motorsports’ most unique displays, and if you did miss this last July’s event, it’s almost like the tire smoke is billowing in your own living room!
