Default Suffolk 1/4 track Question.

I want to give that track a try but don’t know anything about it. Can someone give me a link to the track. Or maybe tell me when they run street cars or test and tune. Tired of driving to Dinwiddie for racing. Not even sure if Suffolk is closer to me since I live in Hampton and I heard it is near NC. Thanks in advance.

as far as i know suffolk raceway is dead
i used to run there in the late 80s early 90s (yes im old)
and it sucked balls compared to any other track
in my 88gt back in the day i pulled 103mph but only a 13.9
ive seen peeps run low 13s with that mph on these newer tracks...

i went 14.1 @108 one time at dinwiddie, and then a 13.5 @109, i dont think its the tracks fault, its the driver and the details of the run that make the time.....

I was talking to someone 40's or above who recently mentioned the track. Maybe he didn't know it was dead. I thought there was another track to run at. I know Richmond has one. Where is that at.

There is a 1/4 mile track opening up across the VA/NC border. It will be open most likely in the spring to early summer. I was told that from VA beach you take 17 south and it is about 44 miles total distance. I am not referring to the already existing 1/8 mile racetrack either. This is a new location and I want to say near Elizabeth City but I'm not 100% sure
