This iconic, one of a kind, eighth of a mile drag strip was the main Sunday attraction for guys ( and ladies) who have this type of racing in their blood! For me beginning in about the 1970's , myself and most of the teenagers from the surrounding towns would gather for competition racing. Trophies were awarded- no prize money granted to any of us. We didn't race for the money, we just did it because we loved it! Fast street cars of all kinds would gather every Sunday afternoon. They would be classified with their respective classifications written in white shoe polish on their windshields! Oh what a time in my history was this! Shady Side drag way is still in operation today and has made some very needed upgrades! I happened to be in the area today and just had to take that trip down memory lane! Highly recommend! read more
