Ray: I had heard that story for years, but had never heard a name or seen it in print, until I ran across that article. Was that the same location we run at in Rogersville? That track is rough, and has dips and bumps in it like crazy, especially in the left hand lane, and not much shut down room...which explains why finally they backed it down to 1/8 mile and 1000' for the big tire cars...of course, compared to Paragould, it's a first class facility!

Rob,

Different location!! The old Springfield/Ozark Dragway was located at Ozark. I was up there in Feburary and tryied to figure out where the old track was? 65 Hwy South was only about a half mile West of the track, but when we went, we cut off 60 Hwy on NN going South toward Ozark. The track could be seen from NN Hwy, before getting to 65. Many houses now occupy the old track area. I don't know exactly when it closed, nor do I know when the Rogersville track opened, but the Ozark track was still open when we quit in 76.
