The last Shootout, Sacramento Raceway 9-9-23

Flew out from Mi to attend this event. Missed the mark on expectations for this weekend.Especially the swapmeet. Now the closest tracks to Sac is Sonoma and Bakersfield after this track closes. The owners havent maintained this place for years according to my buddies who I went with. It was just a matter of time before the county closed in on this track.Too bad though….

The swap for this event has always been crappy. What I saw was low level old race parts and other things I had no use for.
As far as the track, the site owners have not put much money into the place for years. The pit area has degraded pavement that they don't even sweep or repair. The seating in the stands is damaged and broken in many places. I think that the track attendance must have dropped way off in the last 10 years. I haven't been there since the Mopar event last year and I haven't run my car for over 10 years.
I'm not a drag race guy though.
If they would have invested in an autocross arena, I'd have really been interested. They have the space for it. There is a market for that if they would have given it a fair effort.
