Outlaw Motor Speed Way, 8100 W 103rd St S, Oktaha, OK 74450, US

HistoryBack in 1968, or so, a group of friends decided that there needed to be an alternative to the local racing scene and decided to build a track just across the state line from Fort Smith, Arkansas. The new track would be built on a hill, in Pocola, Oklahoma, over-looking the Poteau and Arkansas River bottoms to the northwest and the city of Pocola to the south. The new track was built by the late Tillman Evans and named Mighty Mouse Speedway. The task was not an easy one as the hill was mostly solid rock. To get the 'bowl' of the track formed, explosives had to be used to blow apart the rock and to get the required high banking. Construction on Mighty Mouse Speedway started in October of 1970. The new track opened for their first event on May 28th, 1971. The track was dirt and not even fully complete, and even featured a figure eight track at one time. The track was paved later in 1971 and was renamed Tri-State Speedway. It became a dirt rack again in late 1978.SpecialtiesDirt auto racing.
