We were fortunate enough to see the end of an era at Devil’s Bowl Racetrack. It was the very last blood-curdling, screaming race that those dirt turns will experience. Forever.
After all the black and white checkered flags had been waved, all the fireworks celebrations spent, and every race team is packing up for the next travel destination, the “passionate one” gathered tacky mud from turn four of the actual racetrack. That race-fueled, clear-tear-off-covered, spectacular brown Mesquite, Texas bagged-up soil holds many stories within its 51-year-old history. It is a beautiful piece of the Sprint Car man’s soul.
