Mid-America Motorplex
Mid America Motorplex is an Alan Wilson-designed road circuit in the Omaha – Council Bluffs metropolitan area, in Plattville Township, Mills County, just outside Pacific Junction, Iowa. It is a relatively safe track for people to learn to drive their cars at High Performance Driving Events. It is low speed (most cars under 300 bhp); maximum speeds are around 120 mph (190 km/h) with cornering speeds around 50 mph (80 km/h) with the exception of turn 4 which is a fairly fast left-hander at around 80–100 mph.
There is a motorbike school at the track as well as most local car clubs such as the PCA run driving education sessions.
Mid-America Motorplex has also served as a concert venue. It served as the venue for River Riot 2012, hosted by KIWR, which featured Incubus, Shinedown, Five Finger Death Punch, After the Fall and Emphatic. It will also serve as the venue for Knotfest, which will feature Slipknot, Deftones, and Serj Tankian.
