Anyone ever been on this track? It's in South Benoit, IL (almost in Wisconsin) and 329 miles away. Looks like a really neat track nestled in a farm with woods on it. :eek: Blackhawk Farms

I've heard of it but have never been there. It sounded like that guy chose the right gears for that track, shifting in all the right places but it sounded like he missed his shift as the video ended. Andy and I will be passing through South Beloit tomorrow on our way to Road America, I'll watch for signs and make a note of how long it takes to get there for you.
 
Been there many times. Fun track but pretty narrow.Tends to be a lot of wildlife around.Use to be alot of safety trees but I believe they have took care of that issue.The guy that owns Topeka used to own Blackhawk.Pits use to flood bad but some of it is now paved,camping used to be allowed not sure now.You can be in Wisconsin in like 5 minutes.
 
It looks like they have re-built the main tower and it is under new ownership as some re-paving has been done. Tom, Thanks! Keith, I too noticed the lack of runoff and the narrow track, but I like the fact that you drive through wooded areas so you can't see the rest of the track. Kind of reminds me of being out for a cruise in West County :D
