I told everybody to stay tuned that this was going to happen back in February. So now all you negative people might want to start listening to this "OL AZZ DUDE". Thank you Sherri and any help you need just ask.

Did I miss something or are people reading into their post? I gather they're making the track smaller, which is excellent And already had a WoO race scheduled, which is great. But what's the hype over? Some posts on their Facebook page make it sound like they've announced they're racing weekly (Are you running 4-cylinders? What sanctioning body?).

Glad to see they're resurrecting the place, but anything beyond the one show?

the fact they are racing i think instead of demo derbies or added to it i would guess

From what I've heard there will be multiple racing shows. Track will be a 3/8's mile when the work is complete.

This is good that had to be the worst shaped track for a 1/2 mile for dirt that i have ever seen..It had 2 long and 2 short straits in it and 4 sharp turns.. and it $ucked for dirt cars....It was punch the gas turn punch the gas turn punch the gas turn and now you just in turn 3 Who ever set it up did not know a thing about dirt,... The new set up looks like it will be much better...
There was room for 1 car in the turns and I mean 1 car.. If you were a car on the out side 3 cars pasted you in the turn...
