The Sacramento Raceway Dragstrip was originally built in 1964 by Vastine Smith (Dave Smith’s long lost cousin) Vastine Smith laid the original asphalt and timing tower for the current Dragstrip and two sets of grandstands which held approximately 50 Spectators. Mr. Vastine Smith ran the racetrack for a few years then turned management over to Betty Clark in 1967 who named it Eldorado Raceway, Hence being in South-East Sacramento and so close to the El Dorado Hills.
