Several months ago, the Memphis Motorsports park was closed and put up for sale.
On yesterday, the property was auctioned off with the winning bid coming from Moroso Investment Partners. The closing is supposed to take place in about 30 days. The company's (which also owns the Palm Beach International) CEO has also stated that he hopes to announce several national IHRA drag-racing events in the coming days or week.
Quite frankly, I (and I am sure many others) was concerned that I was going to have a "long haul" to the track to satisfy "THE COBRA's" need to "unlimber." With this purchase, I will have to travel less than 10 miles!
This is absolutely GREAT news for Memphis-area racers!!
