Put some stands IN THE MIDDLE of the four lanes! There's your high dollar seats!

Didn't 42 have four lanes or am I thinking of another track?

Yes, Dragway 42 became the "World's Only 4 Lane Drag Strip" in 1967.

It was four Lanes (2 - 2 Lane Tracks separated by a guardrail) with one side dedicated to "hot cars" while the other side ran stockers, sportsmen, etc.

Both pairs of lanes had their own Christmas tree but their was only a single pair of score boards. The scoreboards indicated either 1, 2, 3, or 4 to indicate which 2 lanes won from the two pairs.

There was a track in Md. that ran a few early- mid 70's F/C shows 4 wide as well, but I think it was only burnouts; racing was still 2 cars...

That would be MIR and not only burnouts, they raced 4 wide.
