Something different. Late Model races at tracks most never seen.
Angell Park Speedway
Pecatonica Motor Speedway
Bureau County Speedway
Mendota Fairgrounds Speedway
Bureau County Speedway was a gem. One 0f the best S.Natl, race i saw between Birky and Babb maybe 15 years ago. Odds D shape track was a hand full for the drivers.
In September 2006 I made the long haul to Aledo Raceway in Aledo, Illinois for a LM special and I am I ever glad I did. It was just a racy little bullring all night long - witnessed an entertaining battle between three Quad City greats, Webb, Guss and Toland. Almost certainly the only time I'll ever set foot in that facility but really enjoyed my one time there. Aledo is the hometown of awesome country singer, Suzy Bogguss.
Saw a Northern Allstars race at Bloomington, Indiana around 20 years ago.
Also, the half mile at the Champaign County Fairgrounds in Illinois long, long ago.
Not an actual race, but one year I saw Jack Hewitt run a two-seater Late Model at the Chili Bowl in Tulsa for a charity auction. The Chili Bowl claims to be a 1/4 track, but looks almost half that size to me.
