Raced there many times. First time I ever went down a drag strip was there. It was on Federal Drive across from Gunter AFB. Some of the asphalt is still being use now for a private road to businesses. Capitol City Dragway. There should be a lot of pictures somewhere. I probably have some. Lot of guys from Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Mississippi and Tennessee raced there every Saturday night back then. People that come to mind are Myself, Bob Dennis's Banana II , Sonny Ray, David Rampy's High Times,Hugh Meeks, Ray Lee's Bootlegger, Jerry Coley Golden Goose, Max Hall's Revenuer, Bill Jacobs, Pete William's Alabama Thunder, John Livingston with the Tennessee Thunder, OctaneStang, Billy Piltcher, Harold Bentley's Krunchy Chicken. Wish I could remember all of them. Lot of great racer came from there. Get in touch with Max Hall he can tell you all of them.
