    Default Talladega Short Track....SOLD.

    Expect this along with details to be announced soon. Purchased by an out of state group.

    Is that good or bad for the future of the track ?

    Depends if you consider SMI/ISC (or whatever they are called) bad for the track

    This news is correct, news will be coming soon. This week we will find out who or whom will be the new owners, have a positive attitude, racing will continue as usual. It is NOT an ISC purchase.

    Why would they spend $1,000,000 + on the dirt track, when there are land with trailors to be bought much cheaper?? Plus, ISC has 1,000 acres already! Hoping for the best outcome!

    Could be front company for ISC or have plans to resale to ISC, no way to know. Either way I'm NOT thrilled that an, "Out of state group" purchased the track. I'd much rather the track be owned locally, than by ANY group. Look at Petty Enterprises after they let that "Group" come in and start calling shots, a sad joke of its former self. I hope things go well, but I'm not optimistic. I remember that group that bought Atomic and pledged their love for racing... Now its a truck terminal because the money was just too good to pass up. Green Valley is a subdivision. The list goes on. The best scenario is always a local owner/operator.

    I saw a "Stewart" buying the track. But his first name is Anthony, not Adam! We'll see how this pans out.

    Sheez are you folks something. Look for a announcement on Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest.

    Racing will continue as usual. Think like the glass is full and not half empty. Come on out Saturday for a full racing program. The crowd we had Friday night was huge.

    Like Oddball said in the movie Kellys Heroes, have some faith baby.

    Preacher will be there Saturday he told me that yesterday, I wanna give the man a big ol racing hug for all he has done the past 42 years. He is a special guy and has really treated me well and has been a valued friend as well.

    Adam knows his stuff to say the least, it reminds me of the time we worked together at Green Valley.

    Thanks to the Donahoo's as well, Mike and Rita ,Mikey and Ryan have been great.

    That is what I thought that was when the laundry mat man had it with plenty of money.
