International Speedway considering new track in Denver
February 14, 2007 8:28PM by Michael Savio
International Speedway Corporation announced it is considering developing a national-level motorsports facility in Adams County near Denver International Airport. ISC is evaluating 1,300-acre land parcels in Commerce City and Aurora, and exploring a 75,000 seat facility. The track would cost in the $350 to $400 million range.
“Right now there are no proposals on the table, no proposals have been made by International Speedway Corporation and no proposals have been given to the International Speedway Corporation,” said Wesley Harris of ISC.
In 2005, ISC bought and closed the Pikes Peak International Raceway in Fountain, Colo., to clear competition out of the area and move the Busch Series race to Martinsville Speedway in Virginia. ISC owns and/or operates 13 of the nation’s major motorsports facilities, including Daytona International Speedway.
