Zoom way out to see the footprint of the former 1/2 mile track. What you see in the thumbnail is a 1/8 mile dirt oval for karting.
The big track was last known as the San Jose Speedway:

Actually, the footprint seen is of a former 1 mile track. Smaller tracks, including the 1/2 mile were located within the grounds of the mile oval.
