Experience the Thrills of Little River Dragway
Little River Dragway holds the distinguished title of being the oldest continually operating IHRA-sanctioned drag strip in Texas—possibly even in the entire United States. This iconic venue is a testament to the enduring spirit of American motorsport and car culture.
Conveniently located just 8 miles south of Temple, Texas, near Little River-Academy in Holland, this historic drag strip is less than 20 miles from the serene Lake Belton. The area’s natural beauty, combined with the roaring engines and high-octane action, creates an unforgettable experience for visitors.
From the moment the engines roar to life, you’ll be captivated by the sight of dragsters racing side-by-side. The thrill of wheel-standing launches and the unmistakable scent of burning rubber fill the air as cars tear down the track at breakneck speeds. Each race, lasting mere seconds, is a heart-pounding spectacle that will leave you breathless. And just as one pair of racers vanishes across the finish line, the next two are already lining up, engines revving and tires smoking in anticipation.
Immerse yourself in the electric atmosphere, and soak in the history of racing tradition. Come and witness the adrenaline-fueled magic!
