The Winlock and Toledo Lions Clubs put on a drag race at the airport about three miles northeast of Toledo during Winlock’s annual Egg Day on June 13, 1954, and cleared $387. After that success they held more races in July and August, drawing entries from western Washington and Oregon. The Lewis County Quarter Milers Club ran the races, which were insured and sanctioned by NHRA.
