A brief history of the beginnings of drag racing in Goleta / Santa Barbara as written by Tony Baker. (Hot Rodding in Santa Barbara County )
A 1948 Start line photo at Goleta. At the corner of Firestone and Cass.
The same corner today looking toward the bridge at the end of the famous 1/4 mile.
(Not marked in any way as the site of the first US sanctioned drag race which seems a shame.)
