MAR, Mid American Raceway in Wentzville Missouri. This track was just West of St. Louis and a very nice track in its day.
I spend many a weekend at MAR and raced open wheel and production there for almost 10 years back in the 1970's. This is where Dorsey Schroeder of Speed fame got his start.

Mid America Raceways
Mid America Raceways was a 1200' dragstrip located near Wentzville, Missouri. The facility also featured a 2.89 mile course which passed out of service quite some time before the dragstrip shut down.
The road course was highly regarded, with varying elevation changes, a very long straight, and ten corners, 7 right and 3 left turns. There were 11 flag stations, #11 being on the straight after the driveover bridge near the end of the dragstrip. The dragstrip also had its run-off area downhill, so there was a strong need for good brakes.
This facility was torn down at the end of 2005, apparently sold for development.
