The closest track to me is a little hole in the cornfield and trees called Mt. Lawn Speedway here in Greensboro, Indiana. Many national stars including Ryan Newman and Junior Hanley have raced there. It also has to unique distinction of having two guys named Tony Stewart race there, one being former Cup champion Tony Stewart and the other being local drywall guy Tony Stewart. lol

Closest NASCAR Official Track: Evergreen Speedway (about 45 minutes to 1 hour away)
Closest Cup Track: Sonoma Raceway (still around a 18 hour drive nonstop by the fact it took 15 from my place to Sacramento)

We have a track here that is both, a 3/8 mile modified "D" asphalt oval and a drag strip which they just
re-did with a full quarter mile concrete strip. There's only about three in the country like it.
It's Kil-Kare Speedway.

Around here, I have quite a few tracks. Obviously, the famed Knoxville Raceway is a place everybody knows and has heard of, and then Boone about an hour north. Over the past year, we lost the Iowa Fair Grounds raceway due to some horrible management from the promoters who drove away the fans and drivers, BUT due to too much bitching, it will be making a come back in a few years as a reconfigured track in another spot on the fair grounds.

My closest track is Riverhead Raceway. They run the late models and the modifieds there, and it's very fun to watch!

No matter if your local track is a unknown 1/3 mile dirt track with seating for 600 or Talledega Super Speedway, supporting your local track is super important. Take it from me, a Riverside International Raceway AND Corona Raceway Refugee, they close down and break your heart, ever butt in a seat buying a pooch and Bud helps, plus honestly the little tracks might have the best racing you'll ever witness.

So to shed some light in this thread, tell us where and what is YOUR local track, doesn't have to be small, just your closest operating racetrack...it's winter so most tracks aren't hosting any racing right now but let's hear about them...
I'm in between Red Bluff and Chico, CA in a small town with no tracks, I have SIlver Dollar Speedway in Chico and Red Bluff Bullring in Red Bluff, Kyle Larson grew up racing in Red Bluff so my family knows him well, while many NASCAR stars and even the World of Outlaws race at Silver Dollar.
