If you have plenty of practice, and a bit of skill, you don't need much width of runway, you need length for the roll out. You would be surprised how small a runway you can land on with the right technique.
With a good setup and some practice landing on a small strip should be no issue. A short vid of me landing a 33% Laser on a friends driveway.
