Hi does anyone out there drive dirt cars on oval tracks.Whats your input on all the small tracks there putting out of business?I live in Knoxville,Tn.We have Atomic Motor speedway there about to bull doze it to put in a truck terminal,That will create 50 jobs 30 which already exist at their local company here now.I know there Are at least 100+ people that work at the race track, not to mention all the revenue generated from spectators that attend weekly this makes alot of sense (right).This track is well know as The Worlds fastest 1/3 mile dirt Track, Sprint cars, Hava-Tampa,World of Outlaws, Southern All Stars,All raced here on a regular basis it was on there yearly schedule,and they looked forward to it.At one time it was part of Nascar sanctioning series.Had been around since the 60's.Alot well know drivers from today have race at this track.What's your alls opinion. http://www.atomicmotorspeedway.com/ I can't believe they would bulldoze heritage like this for a truck terminal.Thanks for your time.Any Ideas on how we might be able to save this.They have already had several town meeting and are going to decide in the next 3 weeks,but it looks like it will happen.
