Attractions
South Butler is home to South Butler Nostalgia Dragway, an independently owned 1/10-mile (0.16 km) 'no-prep' dragstrip. Originally known as Warrick (or Jackson's) Dragway and later King's Dragway, it first opened in 1958 and hosted various categories of drag racing. The track closed in 1977, but was recently revived and now provides old school style drag racing with no use of nitrous allowed. South Butler Nostalgia Dragway currently operates four events per year, on the last Sunday of each month from June through September.
