Default Nearest mile drags?

Where is the nearest location to the bay area that has longer drag races such as a mile or two?

Mojave Magnum (1.5 miles) is set to go on October 8th and 9th. Last year I was able to record a 195 mph run. This year I'm going for 200 mph and with a little tailwind I might just make it.

See you there in October Chuck and good luck with the quest for 200. The tailwind helped me hit 208 at this event this past April.
