So, You Want to Buy a Racetrack?


Even if you spell it backwards, it's still a RACECAR!

If you're in the market for owning a racetrack of your very own, you've come to the right place! No, NMS is not selling one, but we've seen a few on the Internet that apparently are up for sale! All you need to become a racetrack owner is what scientists call "money!" I don't know about you, but there's just something fascinating about this, although for most of us, unless we hit the big lotto prize we won't be buying a track anytime soon. Shoot, if you were that rich, why not build your own track! OK, grab your wallet, and step right this way!

Another racecar!

First up, near Topeka Kansas, and smack dab in the middle of the USA, is Heartland Motorsports Park. This facility is part of a larger sale that includes land that can be developed into an industrial park too. I'm not sure if the local intent is to convert even the racetrack into warehouses and whatever you find in an industrial park, but buying a racetrack sounds like a good idea to me! Your mileage may vary! Check out this link for more info:

Our favorite SC track, not for sale.

Next, up near Grand Rapids Michigan is Grattan Raceway.  This track has been a family business since about 1960, and the family is looking to sell. The track is still operating, includes various other facilities like a BMX track, in ground swimming pool, and etc. I don't know the current business model, but since it's farther north, I'd think that maybe if it snowed enough you could do cross-country skiing or snowmobiling in the winter. Why not buy it and give it a shot! Here's the link:

Charlotte Motor Speedway, probably not for sale. Right next door to the big NASCAR oval is a dirt track, and the 4-wide Zmax Dragway. Oh, and they're building another track right next to this one. 

Finally, if those two tracks don't get your entrepreneurial motor racing, here's a website that lists a BUNCH of tracks, dragstrips, dirt tracks, kart facilities, and related properties for sale. From across the USA and including Canada, there's sure to be something on your shopping list! Shoot, check out the listing for Greyhound Park in Tuscon for some different racing! The Internet was made for stuff like this! Happy shopping!
