=== Air Base Speedway ===
[[Air Base Speedway]], originally known as Greenville Textile Speedway, was a dirt oval racetrack situated just south of [[Donaldson Air Force Base]]. Established in 1949, the track featured both half-mile and quarter-mile configurations and was renamed Air Base Speedway in 1950. Its most notable event was a [[NASCAR]] [[NASCAR Cup Series|Grand National Series]] race held on August 25, 1951, won by [[Bob Flock]] driving an [[Oldsmobile]]. Despite this high-profile race, the track's operations were short-lived, ceasing in 1952. Over time, Air Base Speedway faded into obscurity, and today the site is covered by three different buildings, a railroad spur, and dozens of trees.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2019-10-04 |title=Air Base Speedway, Greenville's ghost track |url=https://gvltoday.6amcity.com/ghost-track-greenville-sc |access-date=2025-04-25 |website=GVLtoday |language=en |first=Sarah |last=Andrews}}</ref>
