I don't know what this will mean to the future of Desoto Drift... I will be meeting with the new owners very soon to discuss our events and express our wishes. I do know that the new owners plan to repave soon. I will keep everyone posted.

PRESS RELEASE FROM THE NEW OWNERS OF DESOTO SPEEDWAY
To all the fans, owners, and drivers, Mike Chase and I, Kevin Williams have purchased DeSoto Speedway which includes 63 acres which will allow us to expand in the years to come and which will soon to be named Full Throttle Speedway. We would like to first thank John and his family for their hard work and dedication to racing in the state of Florida and as they move on to their next chapter in life. We would like to let all of you know our plans for the future of Full Throttle Speedway.
As the owners of Punta Gorda Speedway for the past two and a half years most of you already know what we stand for and that is Family Fun and Hard Nose Racing entertainment. We will be doing some upgrades to the track in the next month and plan on having a grand opening on April 6th, as we are working on our schedule for the upcoming season which will run from April to December. With the uncertainty of Punta Gorda Speedway we felt it was the best time to take on another track to make sure the future will still be bright in Southwest Florida for the fans, racers, and to secure our kids have a fun safe place to race and call home.
Thank you all for your continued support.
Mike Chase and Kevin Williams
