If anyone is going ivestigate this place, I would recomend doing it in the fall or winter, it looks like it greens up to point that it would be impossible recognize any part of the track once the flora and fauna get going.
It was a pretty famous track in its day. CSRA ran there quite a bit.

The drive in theatre was built on what was the parking lot of the race track. The theatre was actually called the Speedway DriveIn.
The wood lattice grandstand was still standing up into the early 70s when it was finally torn down.
