Heard Rumor… That’s who’s buying Sacramento.

Which one?

This quote is from Ron Ortiz in the "Atco is Done" thread. I'm only guessing this is the one:
"Oh, BTW, Emerald Coast Dragway in Holt, FL just sold to auctioneers."

Ah okay. I was under the impression EC had already been on borrowed time, that the last lease was a "stay of execution". It's still frustratingly sad what is happening. And SCREW Copart I'll walk before buying anything from them.

I asked Bret Kepner if he'd heard about Emerald Coast closing.... he added Dinwiddie, US41, Quaker City and Redline Raceway in Caddo Mills TX as all closing in the past few days. Sheesh. At that rate there may only be street racing by next weekend.

Unless he knows something secret. No where does it say Dinwiddie is closed. I looked up US41 and there is nothing about a losing there either. We are trouble in D1 if Dinwiddie closed because we have our last division race there in September.
Let us know what Brett heard.

I misinterpreted his reply, those were strips with fatal accidents not closed. Oops. But still Holt and Atco and countless other recent ones is kind of an epidemic.

41 had a fatality Friday. Quaker had one Saturday.
