    Default Worst n Best Midwest track

    Worst. (Fayette county) absolute worst ran fair board track. Bad surface ,bad prep.bad restrooms, falling down drunk fans better Than the show. (2) Shadyhill. Flat,sand, n grandstands suck, Food is good. (3)Red Hill (closed) nuff said. (4)Charleston. Another bad fair board track. Ain't put 20 bucks in the place in years. (5)Kamp. They try.. just a bad racing surface. BEST. (1)FAIRBURY..Jewel of midwest. (2) Tri-city getting better pretty racy. (3) Farmercity another decent ran fair board track. Bad sight lines in corners. (Macon) Always racy but what do u expect on 1/5 mile. (5)Lasalle) Racy track nuthin much to brag about

    Best track in Illinois in my opinion is Tri- city, Fairbury is good track, if prep right Spoon River is good track, Macon is a good track, Jacksonville is a good track, Lincoln is a good track. For me really no bad track some are just better then others for a variety of reason.

    no way possible to answer this one.... until you have been to ALL of them.... period!
    Allen Brown might be about the closest person you will find (National Speedway Directory) and I bet he would not be bad-mouthing any track....

    Spoon River could be one of the best in the Midwest. It seems to be hit and miss.

    Gundakers do a great job at Tri City.

    Fairbury, enough said.

    One of my favorites...Lincoln. something about them horse tracksmaybe it's the poop?

    You might be onto something. Jim the horse guy at Lincoln runs his horses just about every morning. Highside you will have to ask a Norm about Jim the next time you see him

    For me living in the Midwest, I feel super lucky!!! We have so many really good options! When I travel people ask and talk about my area all the time.

    I've been very fortunate to race all over the country and I can honestly say that some of the best tracks in the U.S. are right there in the Midwest. I've never left a track around there and said I'm never coming back, at least not because of the surface. To be honest the only track I've left from and said no way I'm coming back is Lonestar down in Texas, what a craphole place.
