Did you know that Dale Earnhardt Jr. explores abandoned racetracks, with an 8 episode tv series ‘Lost Speedways' ?

Season one was close to home, just in Georgia and North Carolina.

Season 2 moves to deserted raceways in Texas, New England, West Virginia, and Florida... and starts July 1st on the streaming service, Peacock

What makes each episode of Lost Speedways compelling is that the deserted racetracks still exist. They haven’t been replaced by parking lots and office parks, or left as patchy grass fields.

The empty, crumbling grandstands, and the faded raceways with narration and storytelling that help to imagine what once was, with spectators in the stands and cars racing around the tracks.

update, hours later when I got home:

I tried to get this on my tv, via an Amazon Firestick, and that did not happen. 

The whole NBC and Peacock TV is multifaceted, and none of the 6 possibilities had Lost Speedways. 

When I used my laptop, it came right up. (bottom link)
