Hillarey Sloan · 09-04-2008, 08:40 PM

I heard Live Nation Motorsports Division (i.e. I.H.R.A.) was sold. Anyone know who bought it?

Smart money is on the Bill France/NASCAR group! Daytona Beach will soon be the headquarters for the IHRA. Jim

Heck the tech people don't even know. Hopefully it was bader! Bill please save us, you did it before you can do it again. Just don't bail out on us again.

Go to the IHRA website, do you see anything about Live Nation anymore? Nope! It's a done deal guys. Jim

Hey Venice did you take your computer to Epping with you?. Steve told me you were on your way yesterday.

About a week ago I read on another board that Bruton Smith bought it. I have seen nothing since to confirm that rumor. It would be interesting to see what happens if someone really tried to compete with NHRA, especially if they had a lot of money.
