Here's a quick summary of tonight's meeting concerning a new race facility in the San Antonio area.

 

Shelma Walton and James Beasley introduced themselves and shared their plans in three phases - a sponsorship company called J and S Racing Promotions, Series Racing (no company name given) and a new race facility called Smokin' Alley Motorsports Park (SAMP). It's a planned recreation and entertainment project based upon competitve professional and amateur motor sports. The facility comprises 3,000 acres - located adjacent to the Bexar County Line near Northwest San Antonio.

 

J and S Racing Promotions plans to provide a service that will help race car drivers and corporate sponsors.

 

The facility project description includes the following:

 

- 1.0-mile Super Speedway

 

- 3.5-mile road course - adjusting down to 1.0 mile

 

- 1/4-mile drag strip

 

- 1/2-mile paved oval

 

- 3/8-mile dirt oval

 

- 1.5-mile dirt motocross course

 

- 1.2-mile rally cross, off-road and 4X4 course

 

- 3/4-mile paved kart tracks

 

- 100,000 square foot - indoor kart racing facility

 

- Drag Boat Races

 

Some other highlights:

 

Phase 1 of construction will be the asphalt oval - projected to complete in 2008.

 

Series - bring back Super Late Models.

 

We'll be adding more information later - just wanted to share the highlights.

Are these in order of implementation? In other words, does the promotion company come first? What exactly is a sponsorship company?

 

Thanks

Was there a project budget figure mentioned?

thanks

No. But Shelma did say that bids have been let on the project. I imagine that once the bids are opened they will have a better idea of the actual capital outlay.

Thanks, Nick. I was just thinking about securing the funding and making acceptable ROI on a "big" number given what I see happening in the Houston and San Antonio markets...but "hey", you live in the right country. Write that big check and let'r rip.
