No one has pinned down where this strip was yet.
George Webster ran a drag strip on his Montgomery County farm around 1963-64. On Friday, April 17, 1964, he was working on his tractor at the strip when it rolled over on him. The man helping him ran to a nearby farm for another tractor to lift it off, but Webster, who was seventy, had already died. Nothing else about the strip has turned up.
