      Vic has removed his post until official clarification from Joe/Phyliss Loven.
      The latest post: it is not official.

          If it has actually been sold: this shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone. It has been for sale for several years.

            Here's what I think is going on. Phyllis Loven has a buyer, but the deal has not been closed yet. She probably told Vic she has a buyer and he took it as if they had a done deal. It's not done until the papers are signed. Joe Loven's daughters are trying to fight this. They want it to stay as a racetrack. Stay tuned to As the World Turns.

              i just hope Vic isn’t using this as a way of filling the stands for the Flo 🏁.

                Sounds like they don't want to sell it.

                  Post of the week.... Maybe people should get out and fill the stands without the 'threat' of closure...you don't know what you have until it is gone.

                    This says it all:

                    🏁 EVERYBODY WANTS TO SAVE DIRT TRACK RACING… BUT WHO’S SHOWING UP TO SAVE IT? Yesterday, the dirt racing world nearly lost its mind over an announcement that a racetrack with 52 years of history was...

                      There is an offer out there to keep it as a racetrack. No word if Phyliss will accept it or not. May hear something soon.

                        12.1 Q time at a place that big is nuts, I feel like it races like a big 1/4 mile. I been twice on the way to Bristol. I think if the gap and tazwell could work together on some weekends together it might help them both. Kind of like how fals and FC work together for lucas dates.
