Pomona.

Gainesville, Columbus, Bakersfield and Indy, too. Probably more.

 

[Nunz]

They sold Columbus and I don't think they own Bakersfield.

 

[Prestaged]

I don't think they own Pomona. Isn't that county property?

as of 2013 Curtis Francois owns Gateway

Jason Fiorito owns/owned Pacific Raceways. Not sure on this one several sites list him as selling.

 

[none]

Unless something has changed, Route 66 is owned by ISC (which is the track owner side of NASCAR)
And technically NHRA doesn't own Pomona because the property is the Fairgrounds. They have a long term lease with the Fairplex.

When did Tony George drop off the list? When he stepped down as president of the IRL? I had thought it was bought from the previous owners by ISC and IMS together. It would make sense since IndyCar doesn't race there anymore. Plus we get the same old rumors every year, they are going to shut down the drag strip and turn it into an airport for the NASCAR boys. I just shake my head and laugh.
