 I had no idea that IRP (ORP, LORP, LOR or whatever they call it today) was originally a dirt track. How long was it dirt and when did they change it over to asphalt? Inquiring minds want to know.

Pretty sure it only ran as dirt for one race. Probably running behind on getting it paved. Think it was a Memorial day weekend.

As cool as it would be to see a dirt track there...The current NHRA regime would just make it miserable to be there. $4.00 waters and $6.00 hamburgers and dirt fans will not work together.
