1949 - GAINSVILLE SPEEDWAY
Gainsville Speedway opened in 1949 as a 1/2 mile dirt oval speedway running Stock and Modified Stock Cars, The track was owned and built by Max Looper, so it was often referred to as Looper Speedway.
Despite the popularity of the track it was closed in 1956 and the Military moved in and flooded the entire area, Over the years during periods of drought the top steps of the grandstand will appear out of the murky depths.
