Newspapers reported eleven drag racing events planned for a racing strip at 2001 South Western, near the Downtown Airpark, starting April 4, 1954. A 1954 aerial photo shows the strip directly south of the Airpark. Sunday time trials began at 11 a.m. and racing at 2 p.m., with admission 75 cents for adults and 25 cents for children. Bill Jones promoted the races. The first drew 1,000 spectators and 30 cars.
