I hope he doesn't end up with MIR in all of this.

Bruton Smith's the devil.

Is this guy a major a-hole or something?

I doubt he'd end up owning MIR since it is privately owned.

He (and Bob Bahre) shut down North Wilkesboro in 1996 (and let it rot) and moved the races to Texas. He also shut down Rockingham to move the races to California.

I'm hearing Brian France has made a bid to buy the NHRA.

This is starting to get fun.

I went to the IHRA race last year and was surpised at how small of a crowd was at MIR.
