Was that at Huntsville? That track has always been pretty innovative in getting the seats filled. Years ago when George Howard was running it he started the "Million Dollar Race", initiated index racing and had a one nite a month Outlaw Pro Mod Series. There was not a seat in the house on pro mod nite. This track was my intro to 1/8mi racing in 1990.
No it was at Lassiter Mountain Dragway about 75 miles south of Huntsville. It has been around since 1957... About 4 or 5 years ago George Howard also ran this track.
