Op-ed: Why Tennessee's new road course, Flatrock Motorsports Park, can become a huge success for all involved
Whenever you see the Powerball numbers reach eight- or nine-figure sums, as a motorsport enthusiast, it’s hard not to drift off on a flight of fantasy about how to spend the winnings. For many of us, building a racing team from scratch or investing in an existing team would be a dream. Just think what this owner or that owner might do if he or she didn’t have to take pay drivers.
“Three years ago, the venue was going to be in Oakridge, Tennessee, and he was looking at a much larger racetrack, but it wasn’t working out and there were complications with government, and it was going to cost millions and millions more, and there weren’t even guarantees he would get approval. Constructing the Motorclub and its facilities is a $180m project, and will eventually include a luxury hotel, an amphitheater big enough to stage concerts, a brewery, a winery, a shopping center and more.
Adds Hale, “We’ll be able to host weddings, and also corporate retreats, so if a company wants to add track experiences, we can make it a memorable event at Flatrock, as opposed to sitting in a stuffy conference room somewhere else.” It will not have escaped the notice of IndyCar fans that Flatrock Motorsports Park is just two hours east of Nashville, where the successful Music City Grand Prix has now been held twice. To the objective fan who loves the state and loves the sport, this might be seen as an opportunity for U.S. open-wheel racing’s premier series to have a Tennessee double-header at some point in the future, with joint promotion of events held on back-to-back weekends.
