It may still be there, but it's so over grown you can't tell from the street anymore. Tempted to jump that barb wire fence and go see this weekend.

I was 11, and I was there. Got his autograph on a poster that has long since disappeared.

Really? Wow, I've never heard that Kennedale was anything other than an eighth mile track. You must be pretty old.

One of the old fellers I know raced k-dale 1/4, said they ran 1000', and then went to 1/8. Long before my time. He has stories of Dallas International and Green Valley and apparently there was a track in forest hill way back when.

K-dale ran 1/4 mile for a short while, didn't have near enough shutdown room from what I remember.

I ran a few times at the track in Forest Hills too, it had a huge oak tree right in the middle of the track about at the finish line. Back then Yellowbelly had more safety than Forest Hills did
