   I ran there back in the 70's, at that time it was a sanctioned track that ran points meets.Now it's a ditch,I would just as soon run in a parking lot,taking your ass in your hands if you run there.Go to Milan,Mid Michigan,or Martin.  Harold.

I haven't been to Lapeer in quite a few years.... that track isn't the greatest, but the people there have always been easy to work with.  :thumb:

I heard a rumor that they were supposed to get a concrete starting pad, does anyone know if that ever happened?

Also, I recall hearing that they started to spray the adhesive for the first few hundred feet or so, can anyone verify that?

A few well known bike guys used to go there to test incognito quite often
