Should be nice for the racers in WV.

Actually it is Weston, WV. on Rt. 33. It is about 45 mins. South of Morgantown, WV. Finally somewhere to race. We haven't had a drag strip close since late 80's, early 90's. Eldora Raceway in Fairmont, WV.

Anybody know where exactly it is? I was in the area today and couldn't find it.

2 hours or so id imagine...Guy above you said 45 min south of morgantown, figure around an hour to get to morgantown from pittsburgh if you are movin good.

[2011fiveliter]

Yea, I say 2 hrs is a good approx. I have not been down that way to check it out yet. But I do believe construction has just started. The last time I heard anything about this. It was said that July 1 of this year, is the "grand" opening.

its about 5 miles off I79. You have to turn down a road and its out there. Cant see it from Rt 33 as of yet. not real sure if youll be able to though.

Oh, ok thanks. That explains why, at least partially, why I couldn't find it. I just wanted to see where it was and if they had actually broken ground yet.

1/8th mile.:flipoff:

[2011fiveliter]

Yea, it will be an 1/8 mile.
