Milan Dragway didn't open till '63 and was mostly known then for their "sand drags" in the early days.
They also had a mo'sickill dirt track.
Go fast, slid sideways, with no front brakes "hot shoe-ing"
I spent a lot of time "puddling" hard surface rod on a friends "shoe" for a few years, that would of been in the early 70's.
Milan gained in popularity mostly because,
the Dig "D" ---- also called the Dirty "D, as
the water was very Sulphur laden and the Restrooms smelled terrible even before they were used, much less at the end of the day.
You held your "need" way past necessary, then dashed in and tried not to breath till you got back outside.
The ladies mostly refused to "go there" Ha,LOL!
We need an "Old Farts" category here on OCC.
So them 'youngins kin larn how it was "back in the day" before we is all plum gone, with nobody to tell the stories
