Does anyone know the story on this place? From my understanding they randomly closed in 2021 with no explanation and haven’t been open since. Owner says she is gone for good in a Facebook comment as of yesterday. One of the sickest tracks in Ohio/Pennsylvania and I still am hoping one day we will be able to shred it again. Huge floaters and always good prep. Super fun track. Wondering why it closed if there is future plans how does it sit as of right now?

I heard the property insurance company shut it down. I'm not sure how true that is. The track and people running it were awesome. Pastrana did that moto fight club thing there which is well worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

People talk about noise and dust being the reasons tracks close but it will be insurance. That and the fact that the land is worth way more for real estate than a track.
