Although a Hollywood Reporter production chart indicated that this film's interiors were to be shot at American National Studios, a modern source states that the lot never existed and the film utilized a stage at Kling Studios. Dragstrip Girl marked Judy Bamber's and John Ashley's feature film debuts. In the early 1990s, the Showtime cable network produced a series of remakes of AIP films, and in 1994, broadcast one entitled Dragstrip Girl. The 1994 version, directed by Mary Lambert and starring Natasha Gregson Wagner and Mark Dacascos, dealt with juvenile delinquents and hot rod racing, but otherwise was completely dissimilar to the 1957 Dragstrip Girl.
