Santa Ana Drags
Santa Ana Drags was the first drag strip in the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=NHRA history: Drag racing's fast start )〕 The strip was founded by C.J. "Pappy" Hart, Creighton Hunter and Frank Stillwell at the Orange County Airport auxiliary runway in southern California 〔 and was operational from June 19, 1950 until June 21, 1959
==Making history==
Many pioneers in drag racing began at Santa Ana. Art Chrisman, Don Yates, Calvin Rice, Juaquin Arnett and others participated regularly.
The strip was created with $1000 start up money, and charged both spectators and participants 50 cents, of which 10% went directly to the owner of the airport.〔 The strip installed timing clocks, so racers could actually get accurate times for each run. There was also a pit area, restrooms, a concession stand and primitive grandstands for spectators and plenty of parking. 〔 It was closed due to pressure from C.J Hart, whose wife had hired a private investigator to determine if Frank Stillwell was stealing money from the gate receipts in 1957.〔
