Modracer Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Who is the owner of the track now? I remember at one time Crawford was in talks to purchase it, but it never came about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txtom Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Bobby Knox owns the track now. He is an area racer who has a contracting business, I think cement. He hads just paved the place, installed some rails to the stamnds, and the stands will also get an upgrade in the off-season. They bought the bleachers when Birmingham Speedway was torn down. Last I heard about Crawford, he had approached Ida Fields about Mobile. Not positive it happened, nor have I heard anything coming of it either way.

Montgomery Motorhead Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 From what I have heard Ida Fields is asking a ridiculous amount of money for Mobile Speedway and Crawford says it is way to much so they have not been able to strike up a deal. Crawford has said all along that Mobile Speedway is the track that he really wants..........................................As far as Montgomery Motor Speedway Bobby and Mark Knox are doing a fantastic job with promoting the track. The new grandstands that they built are beautiful and the track has just been repaved about two weeks ago. They have added several more concession stands to help speed up the service.........After being closed for three years we are in the process of getting our local classes of car counts built back up. The race fans here in Montgomery have really supported MMS this year. Several of our shows this year have been standing room only crowds. The fans here appreciate very much what the Knox family has done for MMS...................2010 should be a fantastic year for Montgomery Speedway.
