There's actually 3 tracks but almost no road racer uses Horsethief Mile, that is mostly a test/drift venue.

^^ I think it's the top middle track, not the skidpad on the left, but I could be wrong.

We also have a real nice SCCA track in the area, Roebling Road, in Bloomingdale.
I'm interested to hear how you make out. This track was always a mystery. What do you mean Savannah fell apart? I haven't been there in almost a decade.
