dancer52 Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 yup texas thunder (not to be confused with the killeen track) was its name...was an old gokart track converted for full size cars...used to be a super fun track.... at one time is was just a circle...no straights...now that was fun.

jwmbishop Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 at one time is was just a circle...no straights...now that was fun. How cool is that? Racing on a skid pad.... If racing without turns is a drag - what is racing without straights? (room for Rainbow warriors joke here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one? GO north on 35 from that one and look on the north side the road. I think thats where the one AJ is talking about from the old days is. The one in the link you posted is still open running mini sprints and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txtom Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Speedracer's pic is Gulf Coast, and it is 8 miles south of Alvin on the east side of 35. The other track is 2 miles up 35 on the west side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
