Trenton was changed a few times before paving, and used to be one of AJ Foyt's favorite places to test. My dad has pictures of mid-week testing after flying him down from Nazareth, sadly before my time to join him there.

And another one bites the dust, Irwindale Speedway will close at the end of the year for an outlet shopping mall.
