Talking Know Your Dragstrip? Part 1

Just a little Friday picture fun. See if you can guess what dragstrips are featured in the following aerial photos. I have broken them down into three parts for the dialup users. Some are easy and some will require some experience. Hint: All are located within the Northeastern quarter of Texas. Enjoy!

Dragstrip #1:


Dragstrip #2:


Dragstrip #3:

Yes, the "Rain-X" mini-nats.
That's really a nice track.
I made two passes, then got a free car wash, and spot-free rinse.
There might be a make-up date sometime this spring,somewhere north of Austin.

I remember #1 from 5 years ago, when we got rained out at Ennis, and caravaned to Redneck Raceway.

The track was remarkable because I could spin the entire 1/8th mile (It would finally hook up in the traps).

The only track that hooks worse than Cedar Creek is ____________________:



For super trivia bonus points, name the following dragstrip:
