It was called Columbus Motor Speedway right beside Clifty Creek, or in the HOLE, alot of big name racers came out of the hole,Pat Oconner,Larry Crochett,Bob Baker,Gene Minor,Ted Pfeifer,he went in the creek 1/2 times. I also remember Red Amick coming to 25 st. 1/2 mile and raced under name of Red Apple and won the feach. Butch Wilkerson #1

Greenville (OH) Motor Speedway (google) Half mile banked dirt West of Stardust Motel (49 S/Dayton Rd) South of Eidson Rd. (South of old drive in theater) Easy to see on google maps We stay here about '95 for a multi day Eldora show and walked back behind the motel and found the site. Six inch trees growing up on the track surface then, old ticket booth and broken down stands. It's still there go take a peak.......... Steve & Christie

would this be it?

In the early 1950's, the AAA sprints staged a couple of races at Booneville, Indiana. Any information on that track? Anything left of the track?

Their was (and still is) a track near Fortville called Raceland. It has not run since 1947. It had the nickname of 'the dog track' It is located just a little north and East of the New Chevy dealer at the point of In 234 & 67.

Was this the small paved track 1/5 mile I think? If so I saw some midgets there. Banks, Hanks, Eaton and others so it must have been AAA.

This is what I found on Google Earth

New Bremen OH "the blueprint for Eldora" This storied track is mostly there. Was part of the championship trail to Indy, USAC running here often with many of the Greats taking a checkered flag here! A sportsman club now uses it. Walked in about '94, everything there but "falling in". I heard Earl bought or leased it and then closed it after building Eldora?? Hope this post jogs some memories. Easily seen on Google map north of town.
