    Don't know how you could make a list without Cedar Lake towards the top.
    Fairbury poor facilities? Not since Curl took over.

    i dont think if you have porta johns, rickety wooden stands, etc that you can claim to have good amenities. lots of tracks produce great racing and the race track is the only great thing about the place. we all know those places. I'm wondering about a list of tracks with nice amenities that you could take a person who is new to racing , but is used to a nice facility. i dont think racing survives long term with out facility upgrades at a lot of places. thats why i started this thread. im not trying to put any tracks down. im literally just looking for "nice" facilities.

    In my opinion, Jackson (MN) is a wonderful facility, Husets on a smaller scale.

    i was last there the year babb beat pierce late in the race & the little whiner got on the pa after the race & blamed his loss on the track tires being moved out during the race. i remember porta johns right next to the track, old stands on the front stretch, small concessions and poor parking. Once again we all know how the racing is top notch. yes the town supports the track superbly. please tell me what all has improved since i was there and be specific. thanx!

    i think Davenport is close, but the p.a. system there is poor. if they upgraded that then it would be a overall nice facility with the upgrades made in the last few years. It certainly is a nice county fairgrounds overall.

    Spumoni, a lot of changes since that race. Huge seating/standing area in pits. Multiple new building structures. About the only thing you can say is the front stretch grandstands but there's to much history and nostalgia there to tear it down I would hope.

    Fairbury new bathroom on backstretch n frontstretch no Porta potties. Can't do much with parking as it's in middle of town. More food vendors n food trucks for concessions. An as I said that's only weekend any of above is a issue. Any other race night no problems.

    Def not top notch but they are constantly improving things esp pdc weekend. Bathrooms are nice the frontstretch restrooms has showers. An I always say slow n steady wins the race. Things takes time like last year they improved pits n area. Always work in progress.
