With all the news of tracks closing it is a nice change to see a track trying to reopen

The rumors are true. Negotiations are ongoing. This will not be possible without fan support. So let your voice be heard. What classes should we run? What nights? What series should be brought in? What do you want done with the speedway?

Please tell me your buddy Reno has NOTHING to do with it.

I certainly hope someone gets the place and keeps it open. Their post does say “Negotiations are ongoing” which means it isn’t a done deal yet.

Around 10-12 nights next year. They will try to align specials with other local tracks.
Looks like they might reconfigure the track a bit. Picture of reconfiguration below. Go to the tracks NEW Facebook page they are welcoming all suggestions and comments on classes, specials, ect. Possible some good things in the works for the track.
