Abandoned Race Track: Augusta International. The fastest road course in the U.S.?

After discovering Augusta International Raceway in the process of mapping every road course in North America http://www.lapoftheworld.com/the-map/ , I knew I had to take a trip there and explore what was left of it before any more was demolished for housing or reclaimed by nature. What I found there exceeded my expectations and sent my imagination running. Follow along on a brief walk around what could have been a gem of a track in the Southeast.

Thanks to the AIRPS (Augusta International Raceway Preservation Society) for the historical information and guidance! Check them out on Facebook:
