They finally got everything signed, sealed & delivered. They been completely reconfiguring the track this week. Have a sprint car race next weekend! Three Trades Consultants owner, which is apparently a construction company (had no idea), has effectively teamed up and brought two graders, dozer & a water truck plus hauled around 125 loads of extremely pretty red clay in. They have taken the track from 1.25 cars wide to 80 feet!

Talking about yanking out the light poles in turns 1&2 to get a better arc. It's pretty paperclip like on that end. Have bunch of people volunteering. Place needed ton of work.

Hope the new surface sticks and doesn't turn into a mortar field.
 
Way western Fla. Good luck to them, hope it hits Flo. Always good to see another new track.
 

161 loads of pretty red clay. And the track got rain on before the new dirt showed up. They had already reconfigured the shape before the rain. Took the progressive banking down to widen.

Hopefully with some safety stuff added along with the widening they can get some 410 races. I think they will be able to.
 
They also purchased a newer race car hauler that came with a race car and a lot of extras.
 
They have rescheduled the opening. Couple hour open practice and an Enduro next Sat. Just realized weren't gonna be ready for the sprint car and other 27 classes. Pushed them back a week.
