It was a good spot...lots of trees and a park...Def a fun track too. Right before that got a new owner/operator, the pervious owners/operators (frank&margaret) shut down their other track in marysville...that track could have used some love but it was fun because it had a lot of flat straights, so you could tell who was doing sprints at home..

Those are the only thing I have left from trophies and medals. I donated all mine back to the local track in the early 90's but I kept the State Race medals.

I still have one of my Pickle Plates from Steve Dillinger. He sponsred me, Scott Fifield and Sean Riola at Pedals and wheels as co sponsor. Remember how crazy the Pickle was? He went to every race just to amass points for a plate!!!
