Dragway 42 Named IHRA Division 3 Track of the Year

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.-  International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) member track Dragway 42, West Salem, Ohio, has been named the Division 3 Track of the Year.

Opened in 1957, Dragway 42 underwent a complete ground up restoration and reopening in spring 2017. The Matchum and Harper families provide a multi-purpose facility that hosts Drag Racing, Autocross Racing, Truck & Tractor Pulling, and Concerts/ Music Festivals throughout the year.  Part of the renovation includes Musco Lighting throughout the grounds and bleacher seats that were used at the Daytona International Speedway.

Offering excellent point programs and value driven weekend events are what makes Dragway 42 the Division 3 Track of the Year.

“The Matchum and Harper families strive daily as owners and operators, respectively, to provide a great place to experience IHRA Summit SuperSeries drag racing,” IHRA Division 1, 3, and 5 Director Jon O’Neal said. “They have been a huge proponent for the Summit SuperSeries and have regained the status among racers that historic facility has held for generations.”
