Brandon,
You had me really confused with your post. It sure is hell getting old and memory play tricks like it does.
I remember Lake Hill Speedway as a paved track. We went there late 60's and saw among others running there the Wallace boys, Rusty & Mike. I figured that couldn't be it but then I found a forum that talked about the speedway and it's history.
Lake Hill Speedway was built in 1948 as a 1/5 mile dirt track until it was expanded to a 1/3 mile in 1966. The next year they paved it and it ran until 1981 when it closed.
I am guessing now that you are correct. Belle Clair on Friday, Lake Hill on Saturday and St. Charles on Sunday. Thanks for helping clear that up.
