Default Rumors of Maple Grove shut-down

Anybody hear anything about it? Ive been told that the track was justt sold to a real estate developer. I hope its just a rumor. It would be a shame. Maple Grove is one of my favorite tracks.

I could see the farmland around the Grove being sold to developers, developers puts up shitty houses, people knowingly move next to racetrack, people complain about noise and gets the track shutdown.

That really does seem like a rumor. Its one of the best tracks in the country

that sounds like some **** they would do. there should be a taskforce or watchdog org. for racers, tracks so that nothing like that can happen. A developer must notify investors and potential clients that they are moving near a track and their will be a noise nusaince(sp) and they agree to live there without complaining.
