...if it's the track I'm thinking of, it would have been approximately where the end of Carrington Rd. currently is - across from the Go-Kart track on the hwy...never knew it to be called Billy Foster Speedway though...used to take our go-kart there and go around the track back in the 70's...

...come to think of it - part of it might have been where some of that mobile home park is too - not 100% sure though...

It has been all replaced by the Mobile home park. We used to go to the races in about 68-72. The spot where we pulled out onto the highway was the official burn out spot.
