I race in the Sportsman bracket class at Knoxville Dragstrip, and they are now open! http://www.knoxvilledragstrip.com/
Which is a positive sign of moving forward out of COVID lockup and back at the tracks.
How about everyone else?

Crossville was open. Same with Kentucky Dragway/clay city.
Should have went to Wooostock at darlington this weekend though
Tracks are opening in Ontario, Canada May 19 for events with no spectators and social distancing in place (hopefully people can be responsible and do that but based on what I saw when the mountain bike trails opened I doubt it). Our two local road courses have open lapping sessions the following days so I'm looking forward to getting back on track over the next month, hopefully do some weekday sessions when it is less busy.
Hallett Motor Racing Circuit and Tri-State Speedway in Oklahoma have both opened. Road course and a dirt track.
Nearest track to me is opening back up...
too bad it's just across the border, and Canada is still putting a hold on 'non-essential' travel.
So, not official yet, but looking like I'm not getting to try out a new-to-me E36 M3 (the car!) June 1st and 8th
Ours , Orange County Fair Speedway is working on getting approval to open either without spectators or just their backstretch drive in section open.
I'm going to an autocross tomorrow in Jacksonville. The four other clubs that I race with are all still on hold.
The closest track is Daytona international Speedway. They're going to be running IMSA on July 4th.
I got permission from the landlord to open my track in the back parking lot. My R/C Racetrack. ;)
Sacramento County now allows only outdoor recreation facilities to open, still can't open the indoor track.
Buttonwillow is hosting a vintage race this weekend; no spectators and social distancing are in effect.
The kart track we ride motorcycles on has been "open" the whole time. The rental side was closed, and only people with yearly memberships could drive on the pro-track side, no day rate. A little over a week ago the rental side opened up and they held their first race on the pro track last weekend. People can now drive on the pro side with day passes. I feel fairly comfortable with the space/distancing associated with driving on the pro side, but I'm a bit shocked that people want to go drive the rental karts. Numbers are down a bit, but there is a fairly steady stream of people all weekend shoving their heads in rental helmets.
Pineview Run Auto & Country Club has been open, but only if you are a club member. Even the events that were open to the public are now member-only.
Still waiting to hear if our local dirt track is going to open up here that my nephew races at and i shoot photos for in wisconsin at wilmot raceway. hoping to see soon cause of all the cars i have caused to be bought this past year.
4-17 Southern Speedway in Punta Gorda, FL has been open for the last 2 Saturday nights.

Thinking about talking SWMBOed into spectating.
Got PCA e mail today about autoX in DFW next Sunday.... all May / June events cancelled to let's go autoX in two weeks. Gotta love TX.
As mentioned Hallett is open, and there was also a meeting yesterday in Oklahoma about building another members-only racetrack between Pryor, OK and Salina, OK.

Brooksville with PCA mid June, but that instantly filled up within a day, even without Covid-19, it would have filled that fast lol.
I did a track event at the FIRM this past weekend.
In reply to z31maniac :
I was planning to attend the new track meeting, but held off due to possible crap weather. Hoping to see some actual information on what they wanted to pitch. Saw the overhead track layout, and it looks like a lot of tight turns.
Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!!!!
Well, actually Wednesday the local drag strip is opening. They already have a pretty good sized event this weekend.
I should be at Mid-Ohio today. The track was ok with it but the county health department was unreachable, so they didn't open.
Given that it's pouring rain right now, I don't feel like I'm missing all that much.

I like the sound of that.
