Re: Memphis Track Closed!
I hate we also lost our div 4 race there, yet we still have to go that arm pit at Noble. I say "have to", but a lot of SS cars didn't a few weeks ago. SS cars located only 130 miles away, cars that went to Houston twice, included. A lot of them don't want to deal with the sorry starting line, many that showed up said they wished they hadn't. I thought that might be the race Tulsa got.

Re: Memphis Track Closed!
I think it will be interesting to see what happens to the property. It's not in an area of Shelby County that's going to get a Mall or even a new subdivision. There is a lot of industrial property around the track and a lot that is vacant and for sale. I would think that someone might be able to buy this for a really good price and make a go of it as a race track. I just wonder if it's going to auction or be sold by a real estate broker?

Re: Memphis Track Closed!

Re: Memphis Track Closed!
If we lost a race here in the midwest, NHRA needs to be looking for a suitable replacement in this same area.

Re: Memphis Track Closed!
Who raced there that knows the Memphis management? PBIR has hired Rittenberry as the track manager. Is he good for the racer? He has got to be the 5th to 6th manager in as many years at (Moroso) PBIR. You seem to get to know the manager and the next week he is gone, a new one steps in, no changes to the way things are done. Just more confusion! I hope Rittenberry works out, the car counts suck because the lack of communication between tracks(Immoc and PBIR) and tracks to racers.
