I can remember racing in Evansville (Indoor-Fun City; Outdoor-Burdette), Vincennes, Indianapolis (Westlakes & Jag), Wakarusa, Linton and Ft. Wayne (Indoor-Coliseum). Anyone remember other Indiana tracks? I raced from 80-85 I think.

what was the track next to the veledrome 10 speed track i was there many years how about good ol michigan city indoor, elkhart, (buds bmx) think michigan city had a outdoor as well im not sure maybe some other hoosiers can chime in

I think my brother raced Elkhart. I never raced ABA so I am not very familiar with the Northern IN tracks
Burcham
Lets not forget Seratoma on the east side of Indy and the Liberty Bell(indoor) on the west side of Indy.
And if you want to go way back, Brookside Park on the east side. It was there I raced my first NBL race in 1977

My very first race was at Sertoma in 1981. I still have the trophy. good2.gif Don't forget Moto Mountain!

Growing up in Evansville, it was normally a shorter trip to go to TN or MO to race than to go north of Indy. Seems strange but true.
