Per release
Any idea what the property looks like compared to the old Gatorback?
The Shop
GuyB's initial post explaining why the GP had to be moved to WW stated: "Wyn Kern, the longtime promoter at Gatorback, had been leasing the track from a group of owners."
So how does that work - does Unlimited Sports actually "own" the track, but was leasing the land it was on? Or perhaps the only thing Unlimited Sports "owned" was the lease itself?
Thoughts on relocating the park and retaining the name? From a fans perspective, the I feel like the new track should have a new name. From a business standpoint, I can understand not wanting to forego the brand equity that the "Gatorback" name has accrued over the years
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad there will be a new track, but another piece of moto history is gone.
