This sounds like some good news for the local Virginia racers. I went to the St Patrick Days Race there and had a great time. http://www.e3xtreme.net/tommy-franklin/2...otorsports-park

Good to see. I like that place.
Darlington, Tulsa, VMP, plenty of others. Tracks owned, saved from closing, lousy management, or neglect, by well heeled racers. Royce Miller bought MIR years ago and the place prospered. Seems like it works out better than when the big investors scoop them up. They typically know nothing of the nuts and bolts of the sport and promptly run them into the ground.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Always good news when a track changes hands, and it will still be a race track. Support your local track. Don't have a car ready? Go watch for the day.

PDRA is in there this weekend. Gotta be cool to buy a racetrack, then go participate in a big event there.

Almost 400 cars in there this weekend for the PDRA race. Over 100 Top Sportsman cars. I like the PDRA, glad to see them do well.
