REBELRACER Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 it doesnt look like that developement group is planning on saving the speedway. by the looks of the plans it will build the shipping company on the site of the old san antonio speedway, a gas station on the corner of watson and hwy 16, and then a commercial complex where alamo dragway was located. so i am thinking this group might not be boogity, because he spoke of saving the track to race on, not bulldoze to build over.

NickHolt Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 boogity shared his identity in a post very early on in this thread, but he edited him name out for some reason. I am assuming that he does not want his identity known, so I am respecting that. However, I know that he is not the developer of the site(s) we are discussing.

I would agree I went by there my self while out on a bike ride. The ground is broken,water mains in place and one street cut in just on the other side of the strip between the 1/4 mile and the old dirt track. All looks like fresh stuff machines on site. Big sign with trucking sytem or countainer out fit..........Racers I four one would love this place just to open. I always wanted to race there but love that dirt to much.............ITS OVER unless so called but-boogi can let us know who he is and some hard facts its sad to say but lots of feeling will be saded again...................Abraham#4 sportsmod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenny66 Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Looks like another bit of "Wishful Thinking" for SAS. We may have to accept the fact that the track will meet the same fate as many others, Pan-Am, Longhorn etc. If we do get a 1/2 mile or larger it looks like it will need to be built elsewhere. Sad Thing. Lenny66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelchair49 Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I think every one agrees a new 1/2 mile mile track high banked track is wanted and needed in SA but anyones dreams of bringing back SAS to it's former glory are beating a dead horse!!!

tps48 Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 A new track in San Antonio could do well. It wouldn't have to be a 1/2 mile. If you could clone the HMP facility, you would hit a home run IMO. Houstons track is a great racetrack. If co-operation is desired with THR and HMP what better way to share the pool of cars than with a really nice 3/8 mile track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano36 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I believe Mike has the right idea. As much as I would love to see a new track built in San Antonio, take into account that its been a long long time since there was an auto racing facility inside the city of San Antonio. Pam Am was in Live Oak. SAS is outside the city limits and only recently was included into the San Antonio ETJ. ETJ does not mean its in the city, that simply means its extra territorial jurisdiction that they can apply their rules to. So any new track I believe would happen outside the city limits and Mikes suggestion of a 3/8th mile track makes plenty of sense. As much as I enjoy the half miles from a spectator point of view, the 3/8s are as exciting as well.So Boogity, if you are serious look around the area. I think you will find lots of decent places.

Even though my family responsible for starting SAS the year I married - i never got involved - you know how it is - you drift away - especially if you are a female and on your own with your husbands' family - but I was there when Alamo Dragway got started and my spouse's family involved there - and my own family involved in SAS - but i drifted away because I had other interests. Now some 30+ years later with husband's family attached to Alamo Dragway and my family DIRECTLY attached to SAS and my kids grown and suscessful in their own endeavors (son - Atascosa Wildlife supply and dtr Phd in Biology and scientiest at Berkely in Breast Cancer Research) i'm grouping my way through my families involvement and ownership with SAS. From the depths of my heart, i'm ready to research what's needed in all areas. Sincerely. KaTe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Here is the adv. on LOOPNET.COM Hello- My name is Katherine Friesenhahn. I am General Manager and one of five family members of Reeh Partners, Ltd. (TEXAS) My family, Reeh Partners, Ltd. own 280 acres (more-or-less) to include and contiguous with San Antonio Speedway (TEXAS). Our property is located at Hwy 16 South with the Toyota Plant being directly across the highway. Our property is between Leon Creek and Lone Star Pass. The San Antonio Speedway property is located on the corner of Lone Star Pass (the entrance to Toyota) & Hwy 16. Our property location has continually increasing large amounts of traffic 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our property is a prime location for people traveling to-and-from work in Atascosa County and the surrounding communities, i.e., Somerset, Von Ormy, Primrose, Poteet, Jourdanton, Pleasanton, etc. We feel that the San Antonio Speedway site has tremendous potential in attracting customers for a potential business such as gas station/convenice store, HEB, Walmart, etc. Our other property locations (contiguous with San Antonio Speedway) also run along side Hwy 16 and have customer attraction potential. We are marketing our property (with the help of our attorney) before listing with an agent. Any feedback (positive or negative) related to our property will be greatly appreciated.

NickHolt Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Let's all take a deep breath and calm down a notch or two.. LOL If the property is for sale, and according to Kate it is, then all someone has to do is come up with the money to purchase the property, get the needed permits from the governmental entities, invest whatever it takes to get the place up to code and open the back gate! I for one, don't have enough to pay next month's rent, let alone several million. Maybe someone out there does, though. You never know. But until someone comes up with the cash, no need for any of us to get in a dither. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
