Will The Eldora Wall Of Doors Have To Come Down!

The famous Eldora wall of doors, erected for the late model specials at the Rossburg, Ohio speedway may be just a memory.

With the amount of work involved in assembling it and the almost constant threat of bad weather that requires the wall to be disassembled when high winds are present, the erectors of the wall would like some help from the track to make it a little safer and possibly more permanent.

The biggest hurdle envlolved comes from the state of Ohio's regulations that would have required a sign permit and a relocation, plus liability insurance also there would have been 10 6"X6" poles 10' high sticking out of the ground the rest of the year and kind of unsightly.

A reply from the track management does show that they would like to see it work out:

"We greatly appreciate the efforts Moe and his friends put forth to erect it. And I know it has to be discouraging to have it blow down."

I personally look forward to seeing the Wall Of Doors when we arrive at the track each year for the Dream 100. I hope they can come to some sort of agreement over this!
