As my memory serves me......there were a couple of people involved with the Union Grove Drag Strip......Metzler and the Paul family.......in the middle 60's they split up and the Paul boys worked a deal to use the straight section of the Meadowdale road course as a Drag Strip.....It didn't last too long as the straight section was only a couple of hundred feet longer than the measured 1/4 mile.....soon after you went thru the lights the track went downhill, under a bridge and into a sweeping right hand curve.........kinda interesting for some of the fast cars of the time and you had to follow the road course back around to the Pits........
