[edit] History

The drag strip opened in 1955, and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2005. The drag strip became the oldest continuously operating dragstrip in the country after Inyokern Airport closed. [1] The track also is open for more dates than any other track in the United States. [2]

In the early days of the track, races were started by a flagman (before dragstrip Christmas Trees) and cars sometimes raced four abreast.

In the 1970s, hydrogen peroxide "rocket dragster" exhibition cars ran down the track in the low 4 second elapsed time range at over 350 miles per hour.

[edit] Schedule

The track hosts Harley drags, real street drags, import wars, modified superstocks, and divisions for high school students. The track also has special events such as stunt shows, a nhra Summit Summer Series event, Wild Thrill Shows, Import Wars, Bugfest, and Fun Racing. The track has held snowmobile drags in winter months. Motorcycle Daredevil and World Record Motorcycle Jumper "Super" Ken Mackow got his start at this track in 1970. He went on to become a World Class Daredevil. He is listed in the Motorcycle Hall of Fame. [3]
