I thought NHRA owned that track?

Nope, Dover Motorsports...they also own Gateway, Nashville, and of course Dover.

Ozark is "ok", but they desperately need to dump some money into that place, and it goes through owners on a regular basis...that same *bump* that tries to force you to change lanes right @ the line is still there, the pits are still horribly arranged and drit/gravel, and they've been forced to dial almost all of their 1/4 stuff back to 1000' or 1/8 mile. I've been hearing for about a year now that the Lucas folks are looking to possibly build a track on their complex over in Wheatland (north of Springfield, about 1 hour from Ozark)...they already have a crazy nize dirt track, and are in the process of building a HUGE several acre lake, which everyone is assuming is for boat racing? But, they haven't committed to a drag strip yet, and it would be another long haul for us...I do know they bought the HUGE national Labor Day race from our local circle track, which means without a big money draw their plans for a drag strip evaporated! Needless to say, I was crossing my fingers on that one...30 minutes from a drag strip would be like crack-cocaine to me, but...
