Arthur "Red" Janowiak and his wife Silvia didn't expect a race track to become a reality.  They were always known around their community as hard-working people whether it was farm work or just helping others with whatever they could.  The dragstrip became a dream when Arthur wanted more for his kids.  Construction began in 1961 and the facility opened in 1962...
