The popular raceway is located approximately 5 miles east of Marion, Illinois on Highway 13. The track is completely wrapped with a high, well-supported catch fence atop a strong guardrail.

It has two useable entrances onto the track, located in turns 2 and 4, as well as an exit in turn 1. The exit, however, is able to be sealed seamlessly by an additional section of guardrail during races to prevent dangerous wrecks common to track exits that are placed in the entries of turns. Weekly racing includes include junior sprints, dwarfs, and their four 600cc classes of restrictors, non-wing outlaw, winged outlaw, senior winged outlaw for those 50 and over.
