  • Want to buy a Drag Strip?? Dragway 42 is for sale.

    Dragway 42 is located in West Salem, Ohio and has been around for over 60 years originally opening in 1957. It has undergone a complete ground up renovation and reopened in spring 2017. Dragway 42 is a multi-purpose facility that is host to Drag Racing, Autocross Racing, Tractor & Truck Pulling and Concerts.



    After 24 years of owning and operating Dragway 42, we have decided that it is time to move on.

    To that end, we have officially decided to sell the track.

    We have listed the track with KIKO Realtors, so this will, most likely, be our LAST "HALLOWEEN THING".

    Please help us make our LAST "HALLOWEEN THING" the best ever!

    If you or someone you know are interested in carrying on the Dragway 42 legend, contact Dick Kiko, Jr. at 330-453-9187, ext. 105.

    Thank you,

    The Ehrmantraut Family
    Dragway 42

        Damned that sucks. Hopefully someone will buy it and keep it going.
        There's always something new to learn.

          Huh, that's my local track, though I haven't been in a few years. Hopefully they find a buyer.
