Kansas City International Raceway

Located on 93 acres in Kansas City at 8201 S. Noland Road, this drag strip essentially replaced the old Kansas City Timing Association Drag Strip. It operated as an NHRA-sanctioned track as early a January 1968, but switched to AHRA a few months later. Jim Rodgers was the track manager in 1968. It ran every Sunday from March through November. It hosted an AHRA Grand American points race on July 20, 1968 and the AHRA Finals on October 4-6, 1968. The track hosted an AHRA Grand American race on July 4-7, 1974. It was co-owned and operated by Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harmon, Jr. in 1980. In that year, it ran races on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It held its last race on November 27,. 2011. The city of Kansas City purchased the property to build a public park.

If you walk the trail through the park you will notice some of the original track by the black marks embedded in the concrete.
