Track description and history
Green Valley Raceway was a 1.6 mi (2.6 km) permanent road course, whilst the start-finish straight was also used as a drag strip.[2] The road course was used for Trans-Am Series races, SCCA races,[2] and it also held a Can-Am race in 1984.[3] The drag strip was used for NHRA and AHRA-sanctioned events.[2] In 1974, Evel Knievel used the circuit for one of his stunt performances.[4] The track has since been demolished, and is now a site for housing developments.[2]
