Template:Short description

Byron Dragway is a <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />14-mile (402-meter) dragstrip located in Byron, Illinois, United States, about 1.5 hours from Chicago (Script error: No such module "convert"., straight-line distance). Although the track is <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />14-mile, it has timing for both <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />14-mile and <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />18-mile classes.

The dragway was opened in the 1960s, and at first it ran cars four abreast. However, that practice was discontinued. For that reason, Byron is a comparatively wide track. It is currently best known as the site of the World Power Wheel Standing Championships.

Owner: Kevin Robertson
