As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, there are approximately 130 quarter-mile drag strips operating in the United States. These tracks vary in terms of size, location, and the events they host, from local races to professional competitions. The number can fluctuate due to closures or the opening of new tracks, so it's always best to check local resources for the most current information.
