Hi Everyone!
I was cleaning up & deleting old websites in my racing folder & came across RedHill. Does anybody know Jim Mills? Does he still own it? Is it ever gonna be running again? I really hate when a race track is lost like this. I heard that it was a pretty nice facility with the work he had done on it and looked forward to going there.:crying:
Peace & love to all.
God bless our Troops at home and abroad.
INDY1808 SEE YOU AT THE RACES !

Yes, Jim still owns that racetrack. In speaking with Peggy Mills (Jim's wife) a few weeks ago she indicated that there are no frim plans for Red Hill as of yet. Jim's health might have something to do with that along with Jim's "must have hands on" operation of the speedway.
She did say that Jim and her will most likley attend some events during the season, but nothing definative.
It is a shane to see the place sit idle as it was one of the nice places to race at and work for.
Hope they get up and running!

So Billy, it is still owned by Peggy & Jim? Not in a middle of a divorce?

Was talking about it with some friend over the weekend at Eldora for the 2014 UMP Fall Nationals and another guy told us him keeping the doors shut has something to do with a liquor license.
Kind of crappy if you ask me.
Found this picture of the track
2024 Season: Race 1 - April 20th Brownstown (Crate LM). Unlike many I don't discriminate on what racing I choose to watch.

It is only 8 miles from my house. It SUCKS that it is not open. What a waste of a great little track.

I was by it last weekend on the way to Haubstadt. The track definitely needs some work to be ready to race again.
