Site of the first race ever of the USAR ProCup series

This track closed in 2008 and was largely torn down afterward. There
were plans to use the site as an industrial park afterward but currently
the property is vacant and overgrown.

Miss this track. I remember the first race I went to (nothing featured
on here), this guy flip his car and it finally stopped sliding on his
roof in front of where me and my dad were sitting at. He gets out,
cussing a kicking at the parts on the track. Thought it was funny at the
time lol.

This short track proved short lived for a facility that hosted some of
the nation's best short track series. It opened in 1995 and, as
mentioned earlier, closed in 2008 despite regularly hosting series like
ProCup and ASA.

@4 - the track was owned by Dick Brooks, owner of the Hooters restaurant
chain. Following Brook's death in 2006 there was no-one interested in
taking over the track (or the USAR Pro-Cup, which was based there),
leading to the track being pretty quickly sold for development.

The "USA" originally stood for United Stockcar Alliance, an effort to
get a common set of rules for Florida short tracks which never quite
worked out.
