They were two separate strips. Car counts were so high in the late 60's and
early 70's, we ran two separate strips. I don't ever remember 4 cars racing
each other. The "amatuer" side was really narrow and couldn't handle
anything much quicker than 13.50 sec. Ken A

I noticed the sign over the drag strip that says:
"WORLD'S ONLY 4 LANE 2 STRIP DRAGWAY"
Thanks for the great photos Tom.
