What tracks that are gone would you like to have back (closed / dismantled)?

[jlacey]

Even though they didn't race the best, I would love to have Pennsboro and WVMS back. 3 minutes from the house and WVMS about 35 min. Sad.

I agree with both. Had some good times at Penn and WVMS back in the 90s. Id add Silver Spring in PA and even though i wasnt around when they were open, my family always says how great Dorsey Speedway was back in the day.

One of the tracks that would have to be at the top of this list would have to be the original Atomic speedway in Oakridge, TN. And for me personally, not gone or dismantled, but shortened by new ownership, Cherokee speedway in Gaffney, SC.

Saugus Speedway-dead flat 1/3 asphalt with completely inverted fields of mostly topless '57 Chevys.Riverside Raceway-terrific road course that claimed more than a fair share of racers. NASCAR races there were great.Ernie Purcell Speedway, Grass Valley, CA-red clay doglegged 1/4, 15 minutes from home.Raced, got a pizza and beer and home by midnight. Great small town local track.Geneva-On-The-Lake Speedway, Ohio resort town track where I started. Crude, rough old style dirt 1/4. After race fights were nearly as good as the races.Avila Speedway, outside Fort Wayne, Indiana- 3/8 dirt, ran Wednesdays and Saturdays every week with different classes, well prepped and great competition.

Geneva had a track? I had no idea. We had a trailer in I think it’s Saybrook, next to a park. Fishing on Lake Erie was our vacation. Trailer with no running water, certainly no cable lol.

I-70 (obviously as a dirt track), Log Cabin, the old Dublin Motor Speedway, and turn Cedar Rapids Ia back to dirt....

Beebe Speedway. 15 minutes from the house, seen plenty of snoozers there but just as many barnburners. Just hate having to drive by there everyday and see it falling apart (even more than it was before it closed). Also Augusta Speedway. Mosquitos were no fun but it was a fast and racy place every time I went. Now it's farmland again. +1 to Delta Bowl as well. Could also add Malden Speedway in MO and the Memphis Motor Speedway dirt track. I never got a chance to see a race there before it became a parking lot.

Savannah Ga Speedway & Lakeside Speedway in Atlanta Ga , Paved , Middle Ga Speedway , Byron GA. I used to tag along with my brother to these tracks & remember seeing some great races . Sure do miss them but I have the memorys.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Santa Fe Speedway
Crown Point Speedway (Broadway Speedway / Southlake Speedway)
Rensselesr Speedway.
Illiana Motor Speedway

[Zonks32x]

Hales Corners...and I'd like to see Slinger return to its roots as a dirt track.

Would have said Oshkosh as well prior to last year. After dealing with them in person, I'm more than ok with 141, Plymouth, and others reaping the rewards or their demise.

c&b, Yep, the Geneva track was just through G-on-Lake as you turned south toward Geneva itself. Had a fence that consisted of some short poles in the ground with a couple of cables horizontal around them, no wire fencing. It also featured no grandstands and everyone just sat on their car hoods to watch the wheels and parts flying over you. When I grew up in Ashtabula we lived for the Lake in the summer, sneaking in the burlesque show and bars and chasing the college girls. Ohio drinking age was 18 for 3.2% beer. Track ran from the mid '50s till early '60s. The racing was mostly pre WWII coupes same as at the Jefferson Fairgrounds track and was no holds barred. Geneva also had a woman promoter, nearly unheard of back then. A different world from now.
