What part of MS are you going too? I live in horn lake,ms. Which is 5 min. for memphis. So its at the very top of MS. The only track i know of in MS is Byhalia. I would stay away from that track though. One of the lanes has a dip in it. So if you just stay out of that lane,youll win! Its BS! Its been that way for years and apparently they dont care! Its horrible. If you anywhere near memphis just go to memphis motorsports park. Its very professional. Nationally advertised track.

I dont think there are any 1/4 tracks in Miss except on the coast, but I could be wrong. Memphis is probaby going ot be your best bet.

Whereabouts is the track in Columbus? I'm fixing to be going to school in starkville, so it would only be about 10 mins. from there. The name of the place would be great, I could look it up from there. And it's an 1/8 mile track?

Tuscola Motorsports is a 1/4 track in central MS. It usually hooks good.
