The rumor I heard was 1/8th only. I used to live right off rt80 a couple miles down the road. I remember getting home from work and hearing the cars doing burnouts and heading down there for OPS on Fri night. Good times. Never ran any good times there though.

I dislike Mason Dixon and it is way to far to drive. Rt 70 sucks there is always a traffic jam and my car dont like to go slow w the cam I have. I hope 75/80 opens back up. I still want to race my street bike and that would be a fun drive from my house. Ill go help clean up that place!

O god I hope it opens back up. I spent alot of friday nights up there but never had the oppertunity to run a car down the track. The best part is its only like 10 min from my house. Its a shame to see that place like that. I heard a rumor also a while back that a paver guy that ran there would pave it for free or real cheap.
