When I lived in Illinois I attended what was once known as 67 Raceway Park in Godfrey. It was once a pretty decent race track but toward the end it was closer to the outhouse.

I attended a few races at the Louisville Speedway. It was a real unusual place with a D shaped configuration. Going into turn 1 you went up hill and going into the final turn you went downhill. Strange in that if you asked anyone how many turns there were, you would get a number of answers.

When I was a very small child I went to Lake Hill Speedway in Valley Park, MO. I wonder what ever happened to that place?

Also attended a race at a track just outside of Centralia, IL. Can't remember the name of the place but it wasn't in business very long.

One that I hated to see close was the Queen City Speedway just outside of Cincinnati. ASA used to open their season there and it was a great facility. They turned the place into a truck driving school the last time I heard anything.
