South Texas Speedway 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Racers, Crew and fans, I know that each of you are excited and eager to know what the future holds for 2017. What I can tell you is this. 1. There was a large balloon payment due on the property on December 31st. In order for us to keep the property we have had to refinance the facility. This was not a easy task and is taking additional funds from the owners. We believe we have now got this finished and are waiting on the paperwork to be finalized. I have been unable to commit to 2017 until this gets resolved. 2. We have had some issues with equipment. We currently do not have a working maintainer or water truck that belongs to STS. We are working on these issues. 3. We need clean clay for the track. The track is low and to have the shows we need we need clean clay. We also are working on this. Once we have the above issues addressed we will announce our plans and schedules. Thank you, Ken Hobbs Edited December 15, 2016 by South Texas Speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josh38racer 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2017 Sts is supposed to go to factory stock rules. TRP is staying pure stock.. so ya kinda sux .. I was about to build new car but decided until they figure out what we are doing I'll run old faithful.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arob 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2017 I understand the draw to factory stock I just hope i doesn't hurt the biggest and best class at STS and elsewhere the last few years. Instead of having a 20-25 car class you may end up with a 12-15 class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
