tore up as no more track property??

For St. Augustine? No, just the track surface. The facilities are still there from what I understand. The property just needs cleaned up. The track started out originally as dirt, I believe, then was paved. They ran Hooter's Pro Cup there a few years, All-Pro, I think, and a buncha other good touring series.

I tried looking for Ursina Construction of St. Augustine and couldnt find anything... Any Idea on how to find them or should i just drive to the track? Ive been trying to contact the county to see if the track could reopen.

The track is down and to the right I believe on that google map. Although I have never been to that one. It says it closed in 06 due to permitting issues.

St Augustine Speedway began life in 1993 as a dirt oval but they kept having problems with sand intrusion through the clay and following the 1996 season they paved it. They also had a building in the infield that obstructed the view of the backstretch from the grandstands and it was finally torn down. I saw a great World of Outlaws sprint show there one February and later an ASA race on the pavement. TBARA sprints ran there a few times and two drivers suffered head injuries following accidents. One was Larry Tyler and the other was a young man who I believe was George Rudolph's grandson. As I recall the track had an odd "quiet hour" requirement from like 4-5 or 4-6 in the afternoon when no noise could be made due to an agreement with a neighbor. One nice thing was that Usina paved Big Oak Road from US 1 all the way to the track entrance. The track closed in 2001.

Marty... was that kid possibly Shawn Farr?

I was at St. Augustine for the Grand Opening weekend, with a Hav-A-Tampa Late Model show. Parked in the drive-in section outside turns 3-4. Talk about DUST... red clay dust infiltrated every nook & cranny inside my van, and never came even remotely clean again. Saw a few good shows there while it was Dirt, but never once saw an Asphalt show there.

Would love to see that place come back to life.....
