Hartwell Speedway comments
The track took to social media:
“As you all know Hartwell Speedway has been for sale the past few years and we would still take $500,000 in cash for it. However, it is not listed with an agent. This is a big misunderstanding.”
“Marty was approached by someone that said they had someone interested in purchasing the track. He told them he would sell it for $500,000. The next thing we know there is a post of Facebook that looks like a listing. The individual who posted it has been contacted and asked to remove it as it is not listed.”
“Our plan is to continue racing every Saturday night with your support. We appreciate each and every one of you and we would let you know if it was listed for sale.”
Hartwell Speedway has been for sale… But, it is not listed for sale. In translation, it’s for sale, just not through an agent.
For the price of a medium-sized house, you could be the operator of a dirt track in Hartwell, Georgia.
