Nice Write-Up Of The Track, Active From 1964-1995. Originally A Dirt
Track, It Would Simultaneously Run Both Asphalt & Dirt Races Later On.

The Track Struggled To Stay Open Following The Death Of Founder Howard
Bice's Son In 1982 & Howard Himself In 1984, In Addition To Noise
Complaints From Surrounding Residents.

Additionally Hosted A Drag Strip
& An Infield Figure 8 Course.

Nothing left of the track. Wirco, Inc. is located on the site of the
former track.

That's too bad. Do we know if it hosted ARCA before 1979? (I know 1979
is the first year that we have complete ARCA stats on this site)

It hosted 5 races between 1975 and '78. (The last one was part of the
'79 season.)
