Interesting information.
Drivers like Mark Donohue, Skip Barber, and Roger Penske raced sportscars here, Mario Andretti won a sprint car race on the oval, the Corvette Stingray made its world debut in a race at Marlboro, and Clark, Stewart, and Ickx drove Cortinas here in a sedan race. The cars at Marlboro ranged from Hillman Imps to 7-liter Cobras, Sprites and 356 Porsches to the 40,000 RPM Howmet Turbine car -- which scored one of its two wins (the only wins ever posted by a turbine-poweed car) at Marlboro.
I posted this on the DC Area Maxima forum before I had finished reading it and someone beat me to it and posted this section
Sadly, the track was abandoned in the late sixties due to a combination of urban sprawl and increasing safety regulation. Since it sits in the flood plain and would be nearly impossible to get permission to build over, the track survives today, slowly being overtaken by the trees."
After I read that it was time to find a little more so I went to terrafly and I think I found the track.
Do any of you know about this track?

I'm guessing here but if it wasn't for Marlboro Motor Raceway shutting down, Summit Point would've shut the track down. Read that post on that site for info.
