About this track
A quarter-mile track on Highway 190 in Port Allen, just across the river from Baton Rouge, and historically one of the significant strips in Louisiana. Racers in the comments recall top fuel running here in the Cajun Nationals era.
On 24 April 2026 the track posted an update saying it had been unable to reach an agreement with the owners of the portion of the property it leased, that efforts to find a path forward had not been successful, and that it was actively exploring alternative options to keep racing alive. The post drew over 1,100 reactions, 165 comments and 127 shares.
As of 12 September 2026 there has been no public update since. Google still lists the business normally with a 4.5 rating from 400 reviews and has not marked it closed, but the listing is unclaimed, so Google has no current information from the operator either.
We are not calling this closed. We are saying its future is unresolved and you should not plan a weekend around it without confirming. If you know the current position, tell us.
