I do remember getting excited about the first USAC sprint race there in the spring of 1968...it was scheduled on a Friday night and I had ants in my pants sitting in a study hall my junior year of high school waiting for the bell to ring so I could take off in my 1960 Chevy Biscayne (6 banger with 3 on a tree) and head to Tri County...The race got rained out before the gates even opened and was rescheduled for mid June...Just can't remember who won. Now there is an exit (Union Center Blvd, 1st exit on 75 when you go north off of I-275 right where the track was...across from the track is an area that is called the streets of West Chester with a bunch of restaurants, movie theatre, and retail shops.
