Established in 2005, Battle Drag started its life as a conversation between its current owner Edward Torres and Brandon Leath of Crime Pays Video. Planning and advertising for the event took place online on www.damageincclub.com. Shortly before the event Chris Brull of Crime Pays Video dubbed the gathering “Battle Drag.” What was supposed to be a small club gathering at the San Jacinto Battleground monument for a few people to get featured in Crime Pays Video’s first major release mutated into over 75 vehicles involved in organized chaos. The event was a major success and participants begged for it to become an annual event. Growing each year in magnitude, after the third year the event out grew its venue at the San Jacinto Battleground monument. Battle Drag 4 was the turning point for the event. With a new venue came new costs to put on the event so Battle Drag became a full car, truck and motorcycle show. The creative marketing and different perspective of what a car show should be drove Battle Drag to become one of the biggest car shows in the great state of Texas. Since then Battle Drag has acquired a new permanent home at Gulf Greyhound Park in La Marque Texas just 30 miles south of Houston Texas. With the best trophies of any car show around, the hard work and support of everyone in Damage Inc, a premier car, truck and motorcycle club based in Texas, and coverage from all the major publications in the car, truck and motorcycle community, Battle Drag will surely be a contender for Minitruckin Magazine’s “show of the year.”
