I've driven by that location many times since it's the same location as the circle track which has been there quite a few years. I've never actually gone to that track.

I was talking to a friend who has much more experience with the place and he expressed concerns about a large (like national) event there. It's right next to the interstate, but there is only a 2 lane country road that goes to it. He was convinced that an event with a large amount of traffic would cause problems as the traffic would definitely back up onto the interstate, and neither MODOT or the state patrol would allow that.

Don't get me wrong - I am pretty excited about it being built and the staff they've put in place. And considering how intensive the build was, there could be a chance that a road upgrade is in their plans.

But as I said, never been there. Curious to hear from those who have, and whether the access might be a problem for a big event.
