It could only be a track in Alabama where we have a thread mostly about chicken houses! Hahahaha. Yes, they were there LONG before the race track. Most all that property near the track is Cates owned I believe, and some brothers of the track builder, Wayne Cates, run the chicken houses. As I understand, in the early years of the original operation of River Valley Speedway the house fans were ran purposely on Saturday nights because they didn't appreciate all the noise Mr. Wayne Cates brought to town. It is tough to tolerate sometimes, but I just try to remember that is the smell of money for somebody!
Jokin aside and I'm sure no one took the silly jab at DC serious....The track is really cool and I hope the surrounding area supports it like we should. It's shaped like TST but straights are long. Pretty fast most of the time. Seen some awesome stuff there and some terrible happenings to go with it. The only real complaint there is the often have PAINFULLY slow cautions. If you choose to be an "ultimate" fan this weekend be ready for it. Hopin for the best.
