There are a few others, but the first and oldest of these runs- the East 
Coast's 'Maxton Mile'-lost their lease on the WW2 airstrip where its been run 
for a decade, according to an Autoweek article. If you're thinking of doing 
this -ever-, do it now before the economy takes away all the strips. Look at 
what happened to all of CA's drag strips and most of the race tracks. FWIW-
