Hearing 2 local track owners present, IHRA, a former racer and a large sponsor of a favorite friday night series are all there. Rumor is no bids on the individual parcels. Looks like the guns are loaded for bidding on the track as a whole.

Greg's info is correct.

Norm Fox of Fox Auto Salvage out of Malvern/Minerva area purchased for $460,000. The gentleman that has been on yellow bullett dropped around $440K and the Tedesco family dropped out around $420K is what was reported.

I believe that the equipment package did not sell that Mr. Fox said he would be looking to purchase new equipment for the track. I think there was some local media coverage so watch the Youngstown stations for or Salem news for more info and stories.

NICE......like most reporters you're close.

Sponsoring my own new car for 2012....entertaining BIG powerplant owners to join up...hint...hint.

Hoping the "new" QCR will come with traction and we can have some fun!

CONGRATS and good luck Mr Fox......CALL ME.
