I'm trying to find information on the dragstrip that was located outside Lancaster Pa. in the very early sixties. I don't think it lasted very long because rumor has it a Chinchilla breeder complained the noise killed his Chinchilla's I did find this link but thats all so far. http://lostdragway.com/index.html

Hello, this is a little off subject ,but you might have the answers I need. I,m looking for info and pics of Vargo Dragway in Perkasie Pa. And also the same for Wind Gap Pa. I was at Vargo 1 time but never made it to Wind gap. Since you are in my general area I though I might ask You. I am looking for info on your Question. Thanks
Jerry

Vargo is easy..Joe McNally hosts a huge reunion there every year.(Nov.)
Joe also is quite a historian....(Bret Kepner is way out in front re: old strips.)
