I wouldn't say that Mercer, PA, Sharon, PA, or Lincoln, PA are right in town. All 3 are more on the edge of town. Same with Attica, OH. It is near town, but it is surrounded on 3 sides by farm land.
Port Royal is more of an "in-town" track as is Dixie Speedway in Georgia. In town tracks are always at the mercy of development and noise restrictions. The problem is that most of these tracks were built years ago and then "town" grew up around them.

Hutchinson Farigrounds - Hutchinson, KS.
The track in Colby, KS. is also right off the main street, can't recall the name.
Their used to be a track in a little town in northwest Arkansas called Pea Ridge. Never got the chance to go there, but was told by my dad that it was literally in someones' back yard. It just closes a year or two ago.

Parramatta City Raceway, in Sydney AUS, Archerfield in Brisbane, AUS and maybe Grand Forks, ND? Take It Easy....
PS Perth AUS had a great one I can't remember but sure had fun at a few times, an outdoor pub in turn four might be one of the reson's why, Cong Migro ran it, that I do remember....

Talking about pubs, Premier Speedway Warrnambool is a little out of town but so was the pub on New Years!!! Remember?
