Drag Racer Text Messaging Test

  • You will need to enter your name, and sign up as a student. It asks for a DOB to verify you are over 13 years old.
  • You do not need to download the app, but you can
  • We’re gonna try this for messaging about ladders & lane announcements, I’d appreciate your feedback
