Just seen this article on Facebook.
Just sharing what I saw.

Looks like Huset's might race at least once this year. Doesn't matter if the track has sold or not.

While I certainly hope it happens, this Chuck Brennan guy is starting to sound a LOT like the guy that purchased Chandler Raceway a couple of years ago. Lotsof promises and big ideas and no performance. Yes, I know Brennan is a very successful businessman, but he has made some outrageous statements about his plans for Husets in the past two years.

There is a lot of history at Husets. I hope someone can purchase it, lease it, whatever and get it running again!

Not gonna hold my breath for this one...………….. If they have it, heck yeah I'll go. It's only 50 from my driveway.
On the other hand, hoping to see some laps turned this coming Saturday at Park Jefferson Speedway in So. Dak. They do have a race scheduled and are working well within state set guidelines on this Wuhan Coronavirus crap. They have 410 Winged Sprints and IMCA Modified with the limit at 32 cars per class and 10 people per car. The pits will hold around 140 cars so spacing should not be an issue. They also set the limit at 700 for spectators in stands that will hold around 4000. Also, no crossovers from the pits to the stands and vice versa. We'll see how that goes. Maybe it'll get some other tracks up and going.

Chuck gets crucified for how he has handled the track after he decided to leave the state, and he deserves every bit of it. However, if the ******** goes a different way and his pay-day loan business is not impacted, I am positive that we would still be racing there.

He had announced that in 2017 he was going to have a big dollar USAC sprint and midget show that I was planning on attending. Knoxville, Jackson, and Badlands had announced that they were no longer going to cross promote against each others big winged 410 shows. His track was picking up momentum. He was turning it into a destination.
