Evergreen Autopark a dirt track Posted at 11:17 PM Aug 25, 2008 view more
LOCATION;Evergreen Auto Park is located at 4351 Miller Road about half a mile west of M-99. Miller Road is a mile south of Camden Road or two miles north of Territorial Road.
ABOUT EVERGREEN;Hidden well off a gravel road just over the state line from Pioneer, OH, Evergreen Auto Park is a slice of local dirt track auto racing like it used to be. It's a down-home place where friends pitch in to have a good time, where things are fun, relaxed and casual. On Sunday afternoons a handful of dirt track racers, family, friends and fans get together to do more than watch a race, but to be a part of it.
HISTORY;Although the track is nearly unknown, it's actually been there nearly thirty years. The quarter-mile track was originally built in 1979 by Arnie Miller so his son, Hillard Miller could use it to test and tune his race car --Late Model #53 at Oak Shade, for those race fans with long memories. It was still occasionally used for the same purpose when Dan and Lois Geiner of Whitehouse, Ohio, heard about it. Dan ran Evergreen Auto Parts in Whitehouse and had often sponsored race cars and had run some himself from time to time. He and Lois figured that running a race track would make a fine retirement hobby, and acquired it in 2001. There has been occasional racing for the last four years, although this is the first year that the Geiner's and their friends are trying to run a full racing season. Mother nature hasn't been the friendliest this year to our track and we are working with new management so please be patient as Dan, Lois and all the many volunteers are working out all the kinks.
A considerable amount of work has been needed to turn a quiet little testing track into a place that holds racing regularly. Since the whole project has been done with blood sweat, tears and a shoestring budget. The volunteers have been more involved than cash. " or on />
There are no lights at the track -- no power for that matter, except for a small portable generator -- so racing action is restricted to Sunday afternoons.
LAST NOTE; Keeping a dirt track wet enough to keep the dust down yet dry enough to race is an art on the best of occasions -- it's even harder on a warm, sunny, breezy afternoon, so there are occasionally long breaks between heats. But then, no one seems to mind because it leaves plenty of time for bench racing in the pits, behind the spectator area overlooking the track and the beautiful property. :D
Who I'd like to meet: Lots and lots of new racecars,racers, and race fans!!!!!!
Making our racers and fans feel safe, while still having fun!
I wanna say thanks to all of the evergreen crew for making the weekend possible. I and everyone else had a blast, loved every night there with ya guys! Please post those pictures soon. Take care -Cody Houston, Kevin Hein and Levi Cliffton of BANDIT RACING
