Heartland Park Topeka---latest?!?

They confirmed the divisional race before the water was turned off.

How many people are going to travel to an out of division track that is over an 8hr drive? Really??

Most likely Earlville will pick up one of the 2 races. That is what has happened when Topeka has failed to complete a race in previous years.

Tom I hope Bob's comments are correct. I do not see D5 paying the water bill to host a 4 day race. If the water bill is not being paid I am sure the electric bill is not being paid as well. The next utility to be turned off will be power.

Pretty sad to see.

I heard from a reliable source this weekend water and utilities
will be turned on for LODRS double as well as E.T. finals.
As for next year that may be another story....

I heard that kansas speedway. In Kansas City, Ks. Has plans to build race track, waiting to see what happens in Topeka. Tom

Is Kansas Speedway the Nascar Track?

[Tom Moock]

Bct, yes.Tom

[Stock726]

Build a new track 60 miles away from a failing track?

Sounds like someone is smoking those corn tassels in Kansas!

[Sean Marconette]

The rumor about Kansas Speedway having a dragstrip has been just that since KCIR closed. I live within a few miles from the speedway, and there is no room for a dragstrip. A hotel is to be built on some of the land, and parking for the roundy round spectators is the remaining land.

That would make sense for at least two reasons. It would show some Topeka residents the significant financial bump to the local economy these events actually produce, and also show that the facility is still viable and desirable to host these types of drag racing events to both the local population and potential buyers of the facility.
