Located near Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire, Shakespeare County Raceway became a permenent drag racing facility in 1980 when it was known as 'Long Marston Raceway', although drag racing events had occurred on the airfield site sporadically since the early 1970s. The track later became known as 'Avon Park Raceway' before settling on its current name. It is generally considered to be Britain's 'second' dragstrip after Santa Pod Raceway.
