Stay toon. I will post as more info becomes available.

If you go to Alex Henry’s Facebook page there are some videos with the track overgrown with weeds and stuff that are being cleared.

I read somewhere recently that Henry rifle was involved in some sort of thing involving racing, I doubt it would involve any thing like this, but, stranger things have happened, I'm thinking it would involve how to make a small fortune, start out with a LARGE ONE !

Wasn't the original owner a gentleman named Avery Henry? Same family?

While I'll say one of the best races I ever saw was at Boswell
2009 ISW Sprint Race at KAMP.

WITHOUT new dirt. STOP BEFORE YOU EVEN START. I seen three races there. The 2009 was the best but it's the dustiest track I've ever seen. One of the races International racing tours walked in the gate and walked back out due to dust. Another a car flipped out of turn two and nobody noticed for three laps.

Plenty of stands. The layout and racing are good. But dust was a huge problem. Other is it's out in the middle of nowhere.
