Oak Hill is what you'd expect from a track in the middle of nowhere with no facilities. The 'staging' area is a covered polebarn and a concession stand (only open during race weekends I think), the paddock is mostly all packed grass, porto-potties, etc, no electricity available for riders, etc. In the summer there is no place to go if you get overheated. July / August will suck just as bad as the cold sub-freezing temperatures in February sucked for me when I went.
As far as the track goes, Oak Hill has made some slight improvements to some of the inside corners, but in general the track is sub-par. It's old, I'm not sure when it was built, but the track definitely shows it's age. It's earned the nickname "Rock Hill", because of all of the rocks / gravel that gets stirred up all over the track, that chips your paint and turns into ballistic projectiles when you're in a pack of bikes. Keep this in mind when you wonder why your tires are shredded. Here's an aerial view of the track:
If you look at the far left side of that pic, the edge of the track actually drops down significantly (a steep 20 feet drop) down to those cedar trees and a barbed wire fence. I worked that back corner during CMRA sprint races and at least 10 people went off there, most of which had no chance in keeping the bike up right. Ty Howard went on a rant about the safety of the track, requesting that CMRA drop this track from it's venue... (which is unlikely since the track rental for them is so cheap, it's one of their bigger profit makers).
Now, I'll get off my soapbox. I encourage anyone to get out and check out new tracks and such. As DarcShadow said, keep a level head, and don't push it hard. It can be a fun track, as long as you realize it is was not designed with motorcycles in mind. Oak Hill is unforgiving, as there are a lot of places to get hurt, and with the track being so narrow, you can run out of room really quickly. Oak Hill does have some history, you'll see a board in under the paddock with handwritten lap records from names like Colin Edwards, Hayden I think, and of course Ty Howard plastered all over the top of the records.
