    I did, once, while still a kid in about 67. That, and seeing EJP run there about the same time are my only memories of the place.

    I raced there from 1978- 1990's, it became little apple race way in the '80's . Last i heard about the track they had really cleaned it up with some landscaping. It was the most fun track I ever raced at .

    Right out by the airport on the way to Ogden. I think the roads are all different now.
