Aloe Field

Updated (twice) at bottom
I am currently researching Aloe Field, aka Victoria Dragstrip, which apparently was on an airfield near Victoria Texas (perhaps the current Victoria Regional Airport?). If you have any info on the exact location or on the use of the field as a temporary road course by the SCCA should feel encouraged to contact me via email or the comments section of this blog (email is rwelty at krusty-motorsports.com).
Update
Ok, I've now established that the current airport replaced Aloe Field as the local airstrip in 1960. Aloe Field was Here and has since been converted to an industrial park and had a texas highway built through the middle of the facility. I'm still interesting in finding out years of operation and track layout information.
Update 2
The first cut at an Aloe Field page is Here.
