So You Wanna Be a Speed Demon? A Totally Unofficial Guide to Acquiring a Drag Strip Dominator in GTA V
Ah, the allure of the drag race. The roar of the engine, the smell of burning rubber (and maybe a clutch or two), the heart-pounding rush as you leave your competitors in the dust (or, more accurately, Los Santos smog). But before you can dethrone the reigning king (or queen) of the LS Car Meet, you gotta have the right ride.
How To Get Drag Car In GTA 5 |
Step 1: Ditch the Dinky Doo-Hickey
Let's face it, your trusty Faggio just ain't gonna cut it. You need a car with the kind of muscle that would make Arnold Schwarzenegger blush. Here's where things get interesting.

Now, you might be thinking: "Those fancy drag cars cost a fortune! I gotta rob a casino just to afford the tires!" Fear not, my budget-minded buccaneer! Take a gander at some of these steal (pun intended) deals:
- The Imponte Ruiner: This classic muscle car might not be the flashiest, but it's a tinkerer's dream. With some TLC (translation: lots of time and cash at Los Santos Customs) you can turn this junkyard reject into a fire-breathing speed demon.
- The Declasse Muscle: Don't let the unassuming name fool you. This underdog can pack a serious punch, especially after a visit to your friendly neighborhood mechanic.
But Wait, There's More!
High Rollin': Ballin' on a Budget (or Not)
QuickTip: Skim the intro, then dive deeper.![]()
If you've got some spare change jingling in your pocket (or a penchant for persuading armored vehicles to share their wealth), then the world of high-performance drag cars is your oyster. Here are a few top contenders:
- The Dominator GTX: This bad boy comes stock-ready to dominate the drag strip. Just be prepared to shell out some serious GTA dollars.
- The Benefactor Schlagen GT: This sleek German import is a marvel of engineering, and looks just as good leaving opponents in its wake.
Pro Tip: Don't Be Afraid to Get Second-Hand
Sometimes, you can find a perfectly good (and slightly used) drag car on websites like Benny's Original Motor Works [This website is fictional]. Just remember, "slightly used" in Los Santos could mean anything from "needs a new coat of paint" to "held together by duct tape and sheer willpower." Buyer beware!

Step 2: Pimp My Ride (Responsibly)
Once you've got your dream drag car, it's time to make it your own. Los Santos Customs is your one-stop shop for all things fast, loud, and slightly terrifying.
- Spoilers that scrape the sky? Go for it!
- Neon lights that could blind a small country? Why not?
- A flame paint job that would make even dragons jealous? Absolutely!
Just remember, there's a fine line between a champion and a laughingstock. Use your best judgment (and maybe consult a friend with a less...enthusiastic taste in car modifications).
Step 3: Practice Makes Perfect (and Less Likely to End in Flames)
Tip: Take mental snapshots of important details.![]()
Before you jump into a race and embarrass yourself (and possibly take out a few innocent bystanders), get used to your new ride. Find a deserted stretch of road, put your pedal to the metal, and learn how to handle the beast you've created.
Remember: Drag racing is all about precision. A good launch, smooth gear changes, and a perfect reaction time are the keys to victory.
Bonus Tip: Don't Be a Sore Loser (or Winner)
Whether you win or lose, be gracious. No one likes a bad sport, especially in Los Santos where tempers can flare faster than a gasoline truck on fire (which, thanks to you, might be a more common sight after all that drag racing).
So there you have it! With a little determination, some elbow grease (or a hefty bank account), and a whole lot of nitrous oxide, you'll be well on your way to becoming the king (or queen) of the Los Santos drag racing scene. Now get out there and show everyone what a real gearhead looks like!
