Speedway to NoWhere- Joplin , Mo.

Outside Jolin is the abandoned Rt. 66 Speedway.  At its peak, racers from across the country competed against local drivers on a dusty track.  The dirt track has long been defeated by waist high shrubs and weeds.  All the buildings have been vandalized- furniture smashed, windows shattered, and many items stolen.  Time has all but run out on this impressive landmark.
