According to an SMP announcement, Bill is taking his motorsports marketing company "Energize" to the grove to invent and implement new programs. There was no mention of Bader purchasing though.

Anything to help fill the stands would be a positive thing. It's sad to go to the LODRS race or the dutch and see pretty much empty stands. I remember going to WWCS races back in the day and the stands would be full.

From the Maple Grove Website:

"MOHNTON, PA, February 14, 2018 – Bill Bader Jr.’s Energize, LLC has been hired by Maple Grove Raceway to help pave a prosperous path for its famed facility in Mohnton, Pennsylvania."

Here's the link to the rest of the release:

Bill Sr. ran IHRA. Bill Jr. has been running Norwalk very successfully for years. Bill Sr. is happily retired.
