This came very close to happening at Charlotte, the area was zoned for “motorsports” Bruton breaks ground on the Z-max and then the city has an emergency hearing and almost cost us Charlotte

According to multiple passages in the 2023 race program, specifically stated by the track president, the plan is to build a “state of the art short track” or in another instance, a “motorsports complex.” So, if they don’t do this, it will have been a bold faced lie to the fans and public. The details of course may vary, aswell as the time frame, but it has been promised in written language for sure. It’s in their hands going forward to keep their word…

In reply to JackLikesTrackhouse. its a wrap in SOCAL They aren't putting a race track in prime real estate develpment. Martinsville is in the middle of NO WHERE and has been there for DECADES. Now every Karen cries about race tracks then wonder why street racing goes up.

A part of me wants to believe they announced the sale to build excitement or generate hype for the new short track and the fan experience (whatever that may entail). I’m not saying it worked but maybe that was the idea.

In reply to NAPARacingFan 927. @Casey smith No, Riverside was closed in 1989 and the last of the track was torn down in 2003.

In reply to Jughead870. This track is the reason that me and my wife (including) babies are lifetime Nascar fans. My 6 and 3 year olds are big fans now. So I love this track!

This is my home track but I think people forget, this track needs a repave. So if they keep it a 2 mile you’ll get the same sorry racing we got from 97 to 2010. 2/3 mile short track is the way to go.

In reply to Jughead870. Oh yeah. It was a good send off for the 2 mile oval. I brought my girl to see it for the first time and she loved the view of the mountains and the snow on top of them. She asked if it was always like that and I said it’s rare. She also enjoyed the racing there as well, even though she doesn’t care about sports, let alone NASCAR. She actually cried a little when I told her it’s the last time we’re going to be at the speedway but with luck, it will be back and we can probably see the snowy mountains, the intense gray of the storm along with cars racing each other at a smaller oval.
