Located in Abbottstown, Pennsylvania, the 3/8th-mile high-banked clay oval is celebrating it's 60th year of professional auto racing. The "Pigeon Hills" oval is one of several famed Central Pennsylvania race tracks which represent the toughest, most competitive weekly sprint car racing in the nation. A family fun night to be had by all who visit the "Fabulous Lincoln Speedway"!

May be listed that way, but the higher ups call it a half on the outside.

Ohio Weights and Measures have it @ 5/8ths of a mile but I see it as a big half mile that runs like 1/3-3/8ths... :/

Did he thank Communist China for helping to put a cherry on his tremendous National Openless, Kings Royalless, Knoxville Nationalless and Syracuseless career?

Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Correct, and Port allows the use of the 430 to boost theirs...
