Well they do and they don't. Nowadays, they are called the McMansions.

There are precious few of those old buildings around here, because they were torn down for new development once they got in such bad condtion. They didn't hold up all that well. Water does terrible things to buildings.

Because they kill a whole bunch of people on short tracks. Long tracks would be a monster.
I must have been lucky to have never seen any deaths at any of the supermodified races I've been to.
These are all super badass, but can they turn right as well? Can these be made to handle or is the offset too great?

The tires I use for my RX7 are from these. Very grippy and surprisingly affordable.

Inflation is a killer. Mostly construction was well done for the era, but like someone else said, 100 years worth of rainstorms can do most anything in.

Waverly, before the restorations/rescue in 1936

Waverly, as it is today

To add on, one reason a lot of these places faded away was because they were too far gone by the time anyone thought to save them. There are some that did get lucky, Waverly near West Point, MS and most of Natchez, MS for example.
