Pacific Raceway has been dealing with this for years and has worked with the City of Kent and Washington State to keep the track protected. There are several homes - big ones - that have been built within the past few years within 100 yards of the staging lanes.


The track is on one end on a long sand and gravel pit parallel to SR18 between Auburn and Kent. The urban legend is that the Kent people tried to shut the track down and the business owner/track President, Jason Fiorito, told them that if he shut the track he would move his rock crusher over to the site and run it 24/7.


When they started their expansion the track cut trees from the buffer between the parking lot and sub division for rental garage spaces for racers. Neighbors took photos and complained about the tree clearing even though their homes are are on cleared land.





There is a sign on the ticket booth that reads "The Neighbors Do Not Get in Free"
