What is the first race track you ever attended? Any track of any kind works. Or any other first races memory highlights.

My first race was at the OLD Lake Side speedway in Kansas City Ks. I was like 5yrs old, but remember it vaguely to this day.
My first Late Model type race I attended was at Beaver Lake Speedway in Rogers Ark. Bill Street and Johnny Bone Sr were the guys. Going to Beaver Lake Speedway Saturdays and Monett Speedway on Sundays were the norm for years.
The other highlight that I remember from childhood was the first of three precursor races to the WoO Sprintcar series races held at the OLD Joplin speedway (on Range Line I think), promoted by Ted Johnson in 1977. The touring WoO Sprintcar series started the next year.
