Yep, it is in Freedom, IN. I believe it is closed down now, but I went and raced there a couple times and it was NOT easy to find...had to go way back into the woods, over a 1 lane bridge, and then coming in the gate wait for the car in the burnout box to finish the burnout so you don't hit the rear quarter of the car on the way in. Grass strip all the way down the middle, and not a ton of shutdown. I've heard stories of cows from the nearby pasture getting out and in the shutdown area. It was a fun track, definitely a throwback type of track! As far as the gates, when I raced there it didn't have that anymore I don't think...but I only raced there in the last 5 years so I don't know what it was like before that.
