Hallsville Raceway

[Dragsinger]

Housing Development under construction at former Hallsville Raceway location


Because of a usual circumstance, it became necessary for me to make a car inspection near Hallsville. In addition, the trip required me driving by the former Hallsville Raceway location. I say former, because it is no longer there! I found it sad, even disturbing to see all the buildings and equipment gone. "Some" of the racing surface remains, looks like it might be part of the street layout. Much dirt work has been done and some mechanical infrastructure is roughed in.

I pulled to the road side and stepped out of the truck to take in the site. I found it difficult to grasp such disrespect for our revered race location, it was as if the place died and had been buried. Well, upon reflection, that just about tells the story.

Good by old friend, I sure did have some great times with you!
