Luckily we can still ride most of what is in that video/ tv report all these years later, but some of the specifc area is now off limits to bikes.

Well in 1990 the local AMA district held an MC race at the Raceway. My brother took pictures.

The pits were on parts of the paved oval.

Hope nobody here is old enough to remember Board Track Racing,  It was huge at one time and my home town had one. Some of the winning est riders in motorcycles were racing on wood.
