U.S.30 (Abandoned) Dragstrip ~ Droning the Fading Racing Track ~ 12/2/2018

By the 1950s, drag racing started to become more organized, largely due to the efforts of the American Hot Rod Association, created in 1956. Dirt fields sprouted bleachers and concession stands, and then beautiful paved tracks with safety fences and elaborate pit areas. Drag racing became big business. Being a racing-crazed state, Indiana was not immune to this, and so a famous track was open by 1957, perhaps as early as 1954, in what is now Hobart, Indiana, just east of I-65 on the north side of US 30. Closed in 1984, the US 30 Drag Strip was top entertainment for scores of Northwest Indiana and Chicago residents, but now sits overgrown and broken down NOTICE : All Our Videos Are For Entertainment Purpose Only And Should Not Be Consider 100% accurate.
