Reply to @Chally: Thanks for the information. All the TAF and METAR information on OurAirports currently comes from a free US government source -- it's complete for Canada, the US, and Western Europe, as far as I can tell, but likely misses some reports from smaller stations elsewhere.
Airport of Oktyabrskiy in fact situated in Republic of Tatarstan. River at photo is a border between republics. Oktyabrskiy city is at right bank, airport is at left bank.
Several signs...Look close and you'll see markings on the asphalt on the west side near the yellow boxes. There is a fence/wall covering most of the old runway. And it appears they have made a go cart track on the old apron.

Non russian aircrafts must have a navigator on board. Use the parking stands on the south side of the apron because the surface load bearing capacity.

I don't know enough about drag racing to know what to look for in the satellite pic. Certainly, I don't see proper runway markings.
