Really liked Kamp, but heard it had been stripped of anything valuable, and sold at the courthouse steps. If anyone has any updated info and a number it would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

Yeah. Had 15 nites of regular racing and was planning on some open sprint, and Mod shows in the fall. The guy that holds the paper on the facility backed out about 4 weeks before season. Still would love to promote that place. If anyone knows of any track in the Southern Indiana area please let me know. Would love a fairgrounds track.

I ran at the Green County Speedway a few times I think it was in 1995 when Ray Godsey was the promoter. I won the $1000 to win race and got the $1000. I think he paid 2nd $50. I remember the next night I went to Browntown and won the $800 to win race. 95 was also the year I won the championship at Bloomington. All of my wins were won with low buck engines that I built. My last mod race was in 03 at Terre Haute as I was not going to invest in a $20,000 engine just to have fun. I did run a few mini-sprint races since. I'm 73 now and I think I would race a mod again if we had a crate engine class within driving distance, other old racers tell me the same.
These pics that I have posted were taken yesterday 9/9/2012. The place is a cow pasture now. One pic shows the back side of turn 3-4. Not much brush but lots of grass. Need mowed, fencing, grading and seats and lots of electric work. Its all there in shape, just needs lots of money and work. However the people living near there might be against it as a track, never know till it is a track. It has a very good road from Owensburg all the way to Bloomfield, new. One thing else the I-69 is near there and will open sometime later. It could be a good track is the right people would do it.
