El Mirage Dry Lake Bed is the site of a 1.3 mile land speed record course located near Adelanto, California.
New: 2005-05-22 Last Updated: 2007-08-07
The site was used as a desert dragstrip from 1937 through about 1939, and from 1946 through about 1950. The current use as a land speed record course appears to have started about 1980.
