Can anybody confirm if the fairboard has followed through with this? I can't understand why they would spend the energy to tear it down when they surely use the grandstands for shows and such demo derby's etc at fair time? Sure seems to be knee jerk reaction to any type of racing of anything there?!
The following (although dated) is from their facebook page.


The Vermilion County Fair Board is currently seeking a promoter for the speedway for the 2011 season. Please contact fair board President Al Peeler at 217-446-1530 before January 1, 2011. The track will be demolished if a promoter is not found.Information
Welcome to the "Official" Vermilion County Fairgrounds Speedway Facebook group. VCFS is a 1/4 mile banked clay oval located West of Danville, IL near the intersection of Interstate 74, and U.S. Route 150.

The speedway is nestled next to Kickapoo State Park, and is bordered to the South by a stretch of the Middle Fork of the Vermilion River, which is listed in the National Wild & Scenic River System.

DIRECTIONS! I-74 to exit 210. Go one mile South towards Oakwood on U.S. Route 150, then turn right onto Batestown Road (CR 1180E). After you turn right at Batestown Road, VCFS will be visible to the Left once you crest the hill. (read less)
