The Abilene Dragstrip has been purchased and from what I understand will re-open next year after all required repairs have been made to the return road and parking areas. It's a great 1/8th mile strip. All concrete and very good bite when prepped properly. The new owner is a racer and a manager has not been determined yet - as far as I know. All you Texas racers should start checking the website so you can pencil Abilene in your schedule next year unless they have a BIG money Shootout this year.
