Indiana: I haven't seen Martin Co Speedway in Loogootee listed yet. Saw one sprint car show there and some of the wildest bomber races ever held.
Texas: Big H Speedway as dirt, Battleground Speedway. Texas World Speedway, saw AJ and Bennie Parsons win. Kentucky Speedway, saw some outstanding Indycar races there including an Ed Carpenter win. Chicagoland Speedway |
