I think Baggett’s place will catch a pretty penny, especially if more and more teams are moving East. I also know Barcia mentioned he plans to keep his track to host riding schools and such after he retires from racing. I bet he’ll come out just fine once he’s done with the land and sells the facility to a future moto family/team/trainer.
Just because somebody has paid $50k + to build a private track doesn't automatically add that to what the land is worth.
Florida might have a few exceptions because of it becoming the trendy place to set up your home base.
I would guess the things that make a big difference there for private tracks would be clay being available on site and water resources.
People that were born in Asheville get po boxes in Weaverville or Swannanoa so they don't have to tell other people in nc that they live in asheville.
Multi Billion dollar international companies relocate because those states like Texas offer them tax breaks that no small business can get, at the expense of citizens.
And, no business moves from San Francisco to Texas, especially Fucking Dallas/ Ft Worth, for anything else except for savings on labor and tax, it's not like the CEO is going to live in Dallas.
Charles Schwab is still going to live in Redwood City in NorCal.
Just don't cry when these same businesses eventually re-locate to Mexico because the costs there are even cheaper.

But for me, I'd rather pay the "California Tax" so I have have access to the beach and the mountains and all the other nice stuff here.
Example - Ken Roczen has a nice home in San Clemente, CA and another in Central Florida. If California is so shitty, why would Kenny waste his money on a smaller home that costs a lot more than his Florida place? Because he likes the lifestyle in So Cal.
Lifestyle is more important to me and my family than saving a couple dollars. Quality of life is a choice, you live in a better place, you have to pay more for it.
I hope someday I can move to Cali, its like heaven on earth.
