Neat pictures - does anyone know when this place shut down?

Re: getting in - was it a big gate or perimeter fencing (or both)?

Just to let you know I live near here. I have gone to get some shots myself (see below). This is a privately owned speedway now and the guy who owns it is not real happy with people going in. I had to talk with him and ask him if I could take pictures, he went down there with me to keep an eye on things. He is actually refurbishing the place in hopes for the racing to start back up next year.
