Sorry if this post has already been made. But does anyone know of a good quarter mile track in los angeles, CA. I'm also looking for a possible airport runway to do a top speed run if anyone knows a place. Please help thanks

When I lived in the LA area, I only knew of LACR up in Palmdale, but they closed in 2007.

I believe there are three 1/4 mile tracks available to the public in SoCal.

One is the Autoclub Fairplex in Pomona.
Historic Auto Club Raceway at Pomona, the oldest venue on the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series circuit, has been home to NHRA's season opener, the Kragen O'Reilly NHRA Winternationals, since 1961 and to the season closer, the Automobile Club of Southern California NHRA Finals, since 1984.
In 2001, Auto Club Raceway at Pomona's entire 1,320-foot racing surface was repaved to extend the concrete launchpad from 330 to 660 feet. In 2006, luxury VIP box suites were built atop the east-side grandstands.
