No one has pinned down where this strip was yet.
A two-day drag race on a 7,000-foot runway was part of Randolph AFB’s annual Spring Carnival on May 1-2, 1954. The Randolph Progressive Motoring Club sponsored it, and profits after expenses went to the community fund. The carnival also had an antique auto show and precision flying by the Thunderbirds.
