Topeka news

I just saw on the internet a " mystery buyer" purchased All parcels of the Heartland Park property at auction.

Possibly good news?

Mike or Paula,

As you probably know there are a couple of Amazon facilities out by the airport here in Tulsa.

They are large, but not nearly s big as the Topeka property.

Hoping for the best!

A source close to the situation has told CompetitionPlus.com that the unidentified purchaser reportedly wants to bring back drag racing to Heartland Park.

For some reason when a racetrack is for sale, Amazon seems to be the rumor buyer. Same thing happened with Bandimere, ended up being Copart.

If there is a buyer looking to resurrect racing in Topeka, that would be awesome!

Hawk,
Isn't that the second track COPART bought?
There was a rumor they bought a long time Circle Track in Benton Ar., too.
