Thank you for the clarification, sir! Pretty country up that way. We sometimes go to the races at Travelers Rest Speedway on Hwy. 25. We used to go to Riverside Speedway on Hwy. 11, but that property has now been claimed by yet another Cliffs development. :(

Ever go to Greenville-Pickens Speedway?

Its paved now, but when I was a kid it was dirt. David Pearson, Tiny Lund, and others who made it to the big time started out there.

Dale Earnhardt's daddy, Ralph's name is on the wall as a past track champion.

I still remember those Saturday nights--- getting home late after the race, and still having to sit in the tub to soak off the red dust from the track so I would be clean for church on Sunday morning.
