1973 - JAX SPEEDWAY.
When opened in 1973 this 1/2 mile dirt oval soon became a major draw to the venue, When the track was built soil from from the old Westside track was used, After decades of use the property was soaked with all manner of oil and fuel.
After closing in 2004 developers bought the property with intensions of building homes, The EPA killed that plan and any immediate future plans for the site due to the soil contamination.
