I finally got to retire last fall. SO NOW, I want to see as many drag strips across the US as possible. I am in East TN and know about most of the tracks in my area. BUT what tracks are open in other states and in middle and west TN areas? Has anyone on Moparts, ever put together a list of drag strips? IF so, where can I find this list? And if not, could everyone please provide track info for the tracks in their area? Around My area of East TN, Maryville, TN, (Near Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge), we have Rogersville, Bristol, Knoxville Dragway, Crossville, Buffalo Valley (More into Middle TN area), Brainerd in the Chattanooga Area and Huntsville in Huntsville, AL (I think it is still open, have not been tere in a while). What else is available for me to visit this year. Thanks Jerry

Thanks Doug I actually drove by Atmore yesterday on our way back to TN for one of my wife's doctor appointments on Monday. I so wanted to stop by and check it out since it was Friday night, But then it started to pour down rain at that very minute.

Thanks Garage Door. I actually have not been up north racing since we participated in an IHRA National race at Dragway 42 back in the 70's. Regularly attended Mopar Nationals and the Mopar Classic races as well as Carlisle. But I never took a car to those events to race. I want to be more active as a competitor now. You just never know when you may not be able to do any of these fun things we enjoy. Jerry

London, Ky. A VERY nice track, and even better people that run it. 2 hours from you, straight up I-75. They also host an Indy Cylinder Head sponsored Mopar race in Oct.

Another vote for Clay City, and don't forget Beech Bend a little further west.

Music City Raceway, in Nashville. But like Crossville & Buffalo Valley, it's in a different time zone. Also, In Va., you got Elk Creek (200 mi) and Motor Mile (about 50 more mi). And in NC, North Wilksboro. English Mountain Dragway in Newport, Tn is back open, but they only run no prep and gruge/tuner style races.
I forgot about Lawrnceburg, Tn, in south Middle Tn. And Jackson, Tn & Gleason, Tn, west of Nashville. Clarksville, Tn may still be running.

Island Dragway Great Meadows N.J. my home track for the last 35 plus years... been in business under the same family now in the third generation for 62 years....their Mopars at the Patch race is Sunday June 12th Surprised you didn't mention Atco, considering it's another NJ track. I'd like to get there myself at some point...

Thanks for that Link Raif. I will check it out. I found another one as well. But, some of those track on the site I found are now closed. I was hoping to get a current list of active tracks running on a regular basis. Some I could visit at any time. So looking forward to visinting some new tracks and seeing a new set of cars and meeting new Mopar people.

Good point Brad... Island is my home track and about a half hour from my house but I run 11.50 Index at Atco a few times a year.. its about a two hour tow for me , I like the track... as well as Cecil County , Maple Grove and South Mountain ( near Carlisle ) .. Mountain Mike from SM is great ! and Yes being from N.J. we still greatly miss Raceway Park / Englishtown I used to run their 11.50 Index Points Series and I attended almost all of the 31 Mopar Atlantic Nationals they had except for a few due to rain
