George Ray's Dragstrip

Greene County, United States

George Ray's Dragstrip is an automotive drag racing strip in Paragould, Arkansas. Built in 1961 by the famous George Ray, it is the oldest single-purpose drag racing facility in Arkansas. It is located on Arkansas Highway 135, east of Paragould, with racing occurring (in season and weather permitting) every Sunday. Its facilities include a concrete racing strip 2,960 feet (900 m) long and 31 feet (9.4 m) wide, with bleachers along the sides and a spectator catwalk (an original feature dating to its early years). The facility was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.
