We are avid auto race fans and will be in Fairfield Glade July 2 - 7. Can you steer us to a dirt track within a 100 mile radius?

Up by Bulls Gap/Greenville. Exit 23 on I-81.

Crossville Speedway. It's between Crossville and Monterey on Hwy. 70. Probably 20 -30 min from FFG.

There's also the dirt track between Cookeville and Baxter right off I-40. It's the largest dirt track between Nashville and Knoxville. It's called Cookeville Speedway, and it's just off Exit 280. You can see it from the interstate.

Actually some of those links you have been posting are a bit dated.

This will get you on the right "track."

Thanks so much for your replies. My own searching led to a lot of dead ends. Some tracks are closed, some seem to have been sold and a lot of websites are out of date.. This will be our first experience at a dirt track.

That is true. Try my link above. It is up to date.

what about the town of lebanon, as I recall, when I went in 99, that was where the track was...?

What about the Atomic Speedway off I40 @ Lenoir City/Oak Ridge.
