More news from Palm Beach International Raceway (formerly Moroso Motorsports Park)

Jupiter Florida, October 9, 2008: Palm Beach International Raceway partners, Scott Revell, Ron Dixon, and Keith Wilson announced today their substantial stake in a partnership which has transformed the newly renovated Palm Beach International Raceway.

Revell commented, “With our combined experience, we are working with our new partners Joe Lubeck and J.C. Solomon towards completing the facility in its entirety over the next twelve months. The results will yield one of the finest motor sport parks in North America, with Palm Beach, Florida as a destination.”

“The road course and drag strip are now completed,” continued Revell, “and testing at the tracks will commence in four weeks.”

Partner Ron Dixon and father of current Indy 500 winner and twice IRL champion Scott Dixon, said, “I’ve never seen a better road course surface than this, and we are soon to announce its FIA certification.”

I cannot wait to see this place!

Don't know the people involved but, they put some bucks into and did the dragstrip right - ALL CONCRETE!!

Wonder if they'll be doing a national (Drag Racing) event in the future? Nice place to go this winter.:)

(BTW: They also have a 3 race sponsorship deal on the Hillary Will NHRA Nitro Dragster- she rewarded them with a runner-up finish yesterday - Go HILLARY!)

I presume the surrounding swamp is full of Allegators, do they ever crawl up on to the track?:confused:

Don't get me wrong we need all the willing investors we can get to sponsor race tracks but unless there is a large parking lot right beneath the camera position this track could be a lonesome place.

[Al B]

That's one heck of a long straight in comparison to the rest of the course. I forsee a lot of brake failures in the future along with ruined BVD's. But what the hey, another track is always a good thing.

I see bleachers for the drag strip, but where the heck are you gonna put bleachers for the race track.

"I built a castle...then it sank into the swamp." :D
