Making historyMany pioneers in drag racing began at Santa Ana. Art Chrisman, Don Yates, Calvin Rice, Joaquin Arnett,[4] George "Ollie" Morris[5] and others participated regularly. The strip was created with $1000 start up money, and charged both spectators and participants 50 cents, of which 10% went directly to the owner of the airport.[3] The strip installed timing clocks, so racers could actually get accurate times for each run. There was also a pit area, restrooms, a concession stand and primitive grandstands for spectators and plenty of parking.[4] It was closed due to pressure from C.J Hart, whose wife had hired a private investigator to determine if Frank Stillwell was stealing money from the gate receipts in 1957.[3] Main Street Malt Shop and Santa Ana Drag Strip ReunionReunions are held twice a year, in April and October in Santiago Creek Park in Santa Ana, California,[6] including the April 14, 2012 event. They are now organized by Leslie Long, after being organized by Bill and Marie Jenks previously.[7] See also{{portal|Motorsport}}
