This is not an easy announcement to make. At this time, we are pausing the Crown 9 Championship—our signature grassroots racing series that has meant so much to us, our racers, and our fans.
We sincerely apologize to our drivers, spectators, and the community who have supported this series with unwavering passion. Your dedication helped build something truly special at The Rock, and for that, we are incredibly grateful.
As for the elephant in the room—yes, the track is still for sale. And yes, we want it to continue. To thrive. To grow. To become everything it was meant to be. We believe in the legacy and potential of Rockingham Speedway, and we know it’s a place where the right vision can take root and flourish.
