No one can remember Cecil. It's forgotten.

I mean the video.
I have had a problem not being able to see the videos you guys post. I just get a balloon that says "movie not loaded, upgrade flashplayer 25.0…….."Flashplayer is up to date. I don't know why this has happened but I can't seem to fix it so can't see vids. Safari 9.1.3 or firefox, neither works.
Oh well, I lost an inverter on my last flight and haven't been able to figure out that one either so I guess I'm just losing it.

Good old days memory from 1963
Cecil, try a right click on the video, on "copy video url", paste that in a new window, and see if it will play. I don't have any problem with these videos in Safari or Firefox, but when I want to go full screen to watch a video here, I need to do that copy and paste.
75-80 used to be Bob Walker's home track. Just off I-70. Rumored to be reopening due to the developer not being able to get permits.
When did it close ? looks like the track would need a lot of work
I think that it was in the 2002-2004 range.One of the local car clubs used it as a test track in the 2005-2006 time frame as best that I can remember.I raced there once in about 1988,had a negative experience with some of the locals[favoritizem ] and never went back.There were too many places for me to go to to have to put up with that crap.
Actually opened in 1960 and ran until Oct. 2005. Reopened in 2009 and ran through Sept. 2013.
Nothing 3 or 4 million $ wouldn't fix.
