Savannah Dragway was an eighth-mile (200 m) dragstrip used by the NHRA located near in Savannah, Georgia. The track opened as a quarter-mile (400 m) facility in 1968, but safety concerns and rising insurance costs caused it to convert to the smaller distance in the mid-1980s. They were almost forced to close down at the end of 2005, this was because a neighbour filed many noise complaints and also because their lease was expiring but the lease was extended into 2006 at the last minute.
