I-90 Speedway near Sioux Falls recently closed for a minimum of three years.
Here's a story I wrote about the history of Hartford/Red Devil/I-90 Speedway.
Sorry, I can't figure out how to post an active link. Maybe someone can help an old guy out.

Great write-up. Thanks for posting it. I spent quite a few Saturday nights there in the 90's. I bought my first race car from the great Shawn Reed, who is listed with 41 wins on Butch's list at the end of the article (Chevelle stock car, $600, & I had to make payments! haha). Always interesting to hear news from the area. That's a nice place to race & I will blindly believe it will open again someday.
Meanwhile, what a great time to be able to race Husets! It's always been a great stage to race on, and it sounds like the spotlights will be burning even brighter this summer.

Thanks for enabling the link. I think I remember that car of Shawn's. I remember him driving a Chevelle at Lake County Speedway.
