Sundays in Western New York during the 1960's and early 70's were reserved for a day at the races. Originally known as Niagara Falls Airport Drag Strip, the track opened its gates in 1961 and quickly became one of drag racing’s hottest venues. Niagara Drag Strip hosted the New York State Championship Drag meet. 4500 plus avid drag racing fans flocked to the venue to cheer more than 224 races. Every season attracted legendary names to the bigger shows as Niagara Falls’s Deuces Wild car club became Niagara’s track crew and young drag racing pros began competing at the track. On July 10, 1964, Niagara Drag Strip was officially sanctioned for approval by the NHRA. Niagara Drag Strip hosted the legendary 1967 NASCAR Summer Nationals attracting racing fans from all over the country. Although Niagara Drag Strip closed its gates in 1974 due to complaints of raucous noise, the legendary drag strip lives on in the heart of racing as fans commemorate the monumental victories of the track.
