Hales Corners Speedway

Hales Corners Speedway
Franklin, Wisconsin (WI), US
This 1/3 mile dirt oval track was a victim of urban sprawl. After the 2003 racing season concluded, construction of a Menard's home improvement store was erected on this property, ending 55 years of racing in this Milwaukee suburb. Karting races were also held on a paved road course in the infield of the oval.
