Since the Gateway International Raceway is in Illinois it is neither in St. Louis nor Missouri. Therefore I am removing it from the Buildings and structures in St. Louis Category (

History conflict
"The current oval and infield road course were built in 1969..." "In 1995 Chris Pook, ..., demolished the old tracks,..." Since the old tracks were demolished in 1995, the current ones can't be the ones built in 1969.

The history of St. Louis International Raceway really should be added to this article, as it was on the same location and, in its final year of operation, was apparently known as Gateway International Raceway itself. -

Strong oppose - Ephemeral sponsored names lead to unstable page titles and threaten the neutrality of the encyclopaedia. The "Gateway" name has been widely used for decades so is overwhelmingly more likely to be familiar to readers. Note that the two independent sources you linked there both simply say "Gateway" in their titles/headlines because that's what people who aren't being paid to call it the "British Home Stores Circuit presented by Woolworths" actually call the venue.
WP:CONCISE and
WP:PRECISE also play a role here. "World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway" is far-more longwinded than "Gateway Motorsports Park" and "World Wide Technology Raceway" is overly precise in that it only refers to the venue during the four-or-so years that it has had that sponsor, when the track has been referred to as some variation of "Gateway" for at least a quarter-of-a-century now (see
WP:PRESENTISM and
WP:RECENTISM). There's also the issue that "Toys R Us Speedway brought to you by Alitalia" could be anywhere on the planet, whereas the "Gateway" name refers to a wellknown nearby landmark.
