It was the south part of LR almost to Benton on the west side of I-30. I heard in the early days of operation they actually ran 1/4 there. It had a hanger carport pullout near the finish line for a small plane. When they ran Comp Eliminator all the racers would sit at the end of the track until all had ran and drive back on the racing surface. They had a return road paved with roofing tabs and would high center most race cars. The pit area was enteresting as well. You had to park your trailer at bottom of the hill and would pit behind the starting line with only tools and stuff you brought up from your rig. It was the first 1/8th mile track I had ever seen.
