Interstate 49 Exit at track, not far from Shreveport where 20 goes Dallas to Atlanta, and not far from Texarkana where 30 runs Memphis to Dallas. I 49 runs from Lafayette, LA to Texarkana. Place even has a beer garden.

Maybe you can buy the beer garden part?

I have checked, but can not find it listed at Ennis yet. Just wanting to know if the date is the same.

Marla and Nelson are really great operators for the track. Can not find a better hooking race track. Any day when the track is rented first car goes straight down the track. Truly the track is going to be missed.
The owners of the track doesn't want to do any updates. So sad.
My 2cents worth.

I remember it as a nice facility with large spiders and red mud when it rained.

Really unfortunate that another (good) facility closes. Seems like we will be left with about 15 to 20 places to race.

Looks like the track may stay in business, but with new operators.
