Southern Raceway in Milton, FL. They were supposed to have a race last night but it was cancelled due to a power outage at the track. I’m sure that would have gone over well if they had a USAC race scheduled.

All Tech Raceway is just north of Ocala. It hosts the Lucas Oil Late Models and big block modifieds. Many in the late model world think All Tech will take some additional races to fill the void left by East Bay if it really does close. I don’t think All Tech hosted many national tours like the Lucas Oil Series until the last few years when the East Bay concerns started to grow.

North Florida Speedway is also just north of Ocala and only a few miles from All Tech. It has a better configuration than Bubba Raceway, but it would need some significant upgrades to host a national touring series. If they would make the investment in North Florida, there is definitely an opportunity to host bigger races and make some good money. Easier said than done, but if East Bay really does close the events are there for the taking.
