  • A Better Question is?????

    You named the tracks left in Florida but what track do you miss the most that is gone now???

    I miss USA International for sure and Hileah although I was never able to go to Hialeah but did do some writing for them a few times. But what track do you miss the most???

    Remember, support your local track because tomorrow it may NOT BE THERE.

    Let's go racin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

            St Augustine - dirt (great WoO races)
            Jax Raceway - dirt
            Orange County - dirt

            Wish Sand Mountain could have made it.

              I got to Jacksonville once and Thundercross once. However I did go to St. Augustine a number of times and did a few Florida Pro races from Volusia's asphalt back then. It is so sad to see any track gone but when it is your home track, you must be just broken hearted.

              Support your local track - it is SO IMPORTANT today.

                  Reallly miss Golden Gate Speedway, GREAT racing with Late Models, Tornado's,and Figure Eight's on Friday night and Sprints, Early Models, and Bombers on Saturday nights. I also miss Saturday nights at Sunshine Speedway sitting with...... 'the trash in turn four'.... now you know the origin of my moniker.

                    I miss Jax Raceways. The place was a dump and the car count could really be bad sometimes, but I never saw a bad race there -- or a bad fight, for that matter.

                    On a larger scale, I miss Rockingham like crazy, but driving that far for an ARCA race seems a little crazy.

                        I second Hialeah, you never realize how much you miss a track until it is gone and you have to drive over 2 hours to go see an asphalt race and an hour or more to go see a dirt race.

                        I always ran into great people to talk with there and could afford to go everyweek to it.... It is missed...

                          They have both been gone a long time but I miss Ft. Pierce (Treasure Coast).It was only a mile from my house. I also miss Palm Beach that was a great track much better than that ampitheatre that is there now.

                            I probably miss West Palm the most. Great racing and it attracted the locals as well as the big names. Of course Hialeah where I toiled for 30+ years and my first speedway - Eau Gallie/Melbourne/Brevard County - where it all began for me in the summer of 1957.

                              I am sorry I missed Eau Gallie Marty. Going to those two reunions that Lou White did was great and learning about how great Eau Gallie was was alot of fun for me. I met so many wonderful people that went to Eau Gallie and they had such wonderful memories. I am sure when they were racing there that they never thought it would not be there but even then, tracks were not worth what they should be. You got to support them to keep them alive.

                              See ya soon
