Some one needs to be on the bottom of the list, it might as well be a track form DOWN south!!!...

jbrooks39 10-27-2007, 12:16 AM Not sure about your comment there DD. I guess it could be two fold? But, you should understand that LPR is great track with great racers that just happens to be in the South.
Tim-
DD understands you guys have a great track; he was attempting to throw out some humor.
"Up here" at MPR, we have heard nothing but great things about the LRP track. DD is just hard to understand at times..., ok, most of the time. Heck, he's from Wisconsin!!!
;) Who loves ya, DD???

Sorry for causing any confusion I was just being my wise guy self. I didn't in any way want to slam your track. I was simplely refering to bottom as south and top as north. I again am sorry if you took this the wrong way!!!...

Tim Mc 10-27-2007, 09:06 PM It's all good guys. It wasn't Dave's fought....mine. If I had read the word DOWN in caps, then I would have realized what he meant. I do apologize for the brain fart. I have promised Dave lunch if he ever comes down this way to race! Now back to the thread.
Kevin V 10-29-2007, 07:02 PM Marble's Hobby - Des Moines, IA Closed 1993
Outlaw Raceway Park - Hudson, SD Closed 2000
Wacha's Place - Columbus, NE raced from 2002 - 2004
All were great 1/4 scale tracks in their day!
Another one that might make a come back. From what I heard, new 1/4 scale racer, Charlie Ashton, just bought it. The Cornbelt Racing Series raced there one time in the early 90's.
Rochester, MN...not sure the name of it.
big maestro 10-29-2007, 07:44 PM Anyone ever raced or even heard of TBS superspeedway in Darlington S.C?
This track was HUGE. It had 135 foot straightaways banked 15 degrees and 33 degree turns. That was my first big track I ever ran on. I was to young to own 1/4 scales back then but I ran 1/10 and hoped to one day run 1/4 scales but it closed down a few years later. I tried to lease the track and property but they are apparently not interested. It now has 20 fott trees in the intire infield.
fasteddie09 10-29-2007, 09:01 PM Yes I remember TBS super speedway.I wish it was still open that track was awesome.That was our tally back in the day.
big maestro 10-29-2007, 09:11 PM I wish the people that own the land would let me lease it form them. The pavement is actually still in decent shape. I could take my bobcat to the pine trees in the infield.
Do you have any pics from those days?
IN2RACIN 11-01-2007, 11:48 AM What about the track in Basset Va.? (Don't know the name) Is it open?
FMurry8995 11-01-2007, 01:46 PM What about the track in Basset Va.? (Don't know the name) Is it open?
That would be Terry Rea's track. I have no idea as to what has happened with it.

Sonny B 11-01-2007, 10:43 PM Sonny you forgot LB's and Bud's here in Lakeland! LOL
Rattler...better known as southern hemmoroid
Yep forgot about Bud' place,
I had Burtons on my page 1 post, did not notice it missed the master list.
Is LB still around? How about the track?
Rattler 11-02-2007, 07:39 AM Yea LB is still suckin it up all over town and the track, though mostly 6 foot tall grass, is still there. Too bad because I really liked racing there. Bud is around but down to driving a school bus or crossing kids at a intersection. Not sure which but that's what I heard! No track! That property was sold to settle a debt of some type. Again what I was told!
Typical florida scene! They come, they go! There was also a track down south we raced at called Mills Pond that wasn't listed and the track in Wimauma. That track was big and fast! 1/8 mile! We hit nearly 70 mph down the straights! It was best if you didn't blink! LoL
And would you believe about 3 yrs ago, the drivers stand, if that's what you would call it, was still standing at the parking lot track in Ocala? It was all but down but still there!
We also raced in Barnesvill, Ga at a kart track that Bob Moore put together and also a parking lot track (qsac portable) that he also got together!
THOSE WERE THE DAYS!
