One that I know of in Ohio was Riverside (Proctorville, across the river from Huntington). Went there as a kid and have great memories of it. Another one in WV was Raleigh County (Beckley). I'm not sure if Fort Gay is still running - also known as the 100 yard dash. Originally a sand drag and truck pulling track that converted to asphalt drags (at the same distance).
