Over 400 ton of clay has been distributed over the racing surface for starters which should make the track even faster. Higher guardrail and catch fencing has been installed in turns one and two plus more guardrailing and fence has gone up in turn three. All the components for more grandstand seating is on the grounds and in the process of being put up with a good chance of a couple of loges being built. The concession stand and the tower have been improved. Also a new look website will be up if not already for the fans and drivers to keep up with the activity at Hilltop Speedway.
