The 6 oclock news out of Terre Haute has a New or 2nd Bid from Greg Gibson and Thompson Thrift to by the Terre Haute Fairgrounds. This New offer seems to involve building a New Fairgrounds to the West of its current location. "Which I think was talked about in the past". I believe they mentioned this being done for 09, with an "Option" that would include or "NOT" the building of a new track.
This new offer seems to come at a time when we are all hoping that we have a new Promoter for the Action Track. It has to be disconcerting for those trying to put things back togather.
Hopefully Mike King and Co. can get things signed and sealed soon. I think the only way to insure the future of the track is to get it back up and running. The longer it sits the harder it will be in all aspects. Also, the longer it sits the better chance someone will have to buy it out and it seems the more time goes by the more people get onboard with the idea of it selling being OK...... To me its a flat out shame that one of the most Historic Dirt Tracks in the Midwest can find so few friends and fans to Stick UP for Her!
Good Luck to MiKe King and Co.........
