Ghost Speedway. Metrolina Charlotte, NC. Oct. 2010

Metrolina Speedway was located in the northeast section of Charlotte, NC on the Metrolina Fairgrounds. Metrolina was a 1/2 mile clay track. It was paved for a short time in the 1970s to allow the NASCAR circuit to hold races there. Metrolina is possibly most famous as the track where Dale Earnhardt won his first race on asphalt. The track's history dates back more than 40 years. It was planned to be rebuilt but plans fell through during the economic crises. Scott LePage / MotorRacingPhoto.com
