Default Re: Firebird Raceway....Future??

Beeline is still there. The tower still stands. but everything is so far gone. It is also on Indian Rez I believe. Plus the top end of the track has been taken up with a small RV park and Skeet shooting range.
That will SUCK if we loose Firebird. I am heading out tomorrow for the Div.7 Opener. That is just about my favorite event of the year. I missed it last year because I had a blow out on my truck on the way out there. I had better enjoy it allot then. Might be the last time.
Speedworld is so cool because of it's size. It is an old track built in the 60s and it has not changed much over the years. It shut down once in the late 70s then reopened in 1988. It was Phoenix Raceway Park. I think that it might have a problem with the insurance because of the close confines of the track.


To me it is the greatest drag strip in the world. But It is very outdated. But that is what is so beautiful about it. I loved it when the Division 7 opener was held there.
If we loose both of these race tracks. It is going to SUCK here. It will give me more incentive to move as I am planning on it.
