Not sure if this is what your are looking for but found this on Google,
Bull Valley Speedway
Bull Valley Speedway is a 4/10 mile dirt oval located on the Audubon County Fairgrounds on the west side of Audubon, Iowa.
The track closed during 2005 due to lack of support. Future plans are unknown.

I think they still run figure-8's a few times a year on the front stretch. The track is still mostly intact (at least it was last summer) but there doesn't seem to be much interest in starting it up again.

Thanks for the response. I found all that info on one of the track finder sites. Kinda looking for people who might have attended races in the past. If the track was good? Did it ever have sprint shows? Maybe if it did have a sprint show would people attend?

I went to a few stock car shows there over the years and it was usually pretty racy. Wide, fast, fairly high-banked turns. I don't recall any sprint car shows there in the last 20-30 years. Maybe a couple of late model shows. The stands are kind of smallish, there didn't seem to be a lot of local support and I think a sprint show might be a tough sell there. The place definitely needs some work.
