James Madden was owner of Chaparral Speedway, which was located directly adjacent to Legend City. When Legend City closed for the last time, Madden was granted exclusive access to the park grounds by SRP. His videos of the abandoned park, the auction of park assets, and demolition of the remaining buildings provide an invaluable and poignant record of Legend City at the end of the trail.
