Kim Green, Kevin Savoree buy Mid-Ohio

Toronto Indy owners buy Ohio track

The owners and promoters of the Honda Indy Toronto are now the owners of three races on the IZOD IndyCar Series calendar with the acquisition Wednesday of the fabled Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course near Lexington, Ohio.

It was announced in a release Wednesday night that Green Savoree Racing Promotions had purchased the race track from Dublin, Ohio-based TrueSports, Inc.

Founded in 2009 by motorsports executives Kim Green and Kevin Savoree, Green Savoree Racing Promotions is a motorsports event ownership and management company that also owns and operates the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg.

...

As a postscript, I understand that in addition to Toronto, St. Pete’s and now the Mid-Ohio event, Green and Savoree have made inquiries as to the availability of yet another race on the IZOD IndyCar Series calendar.

Stay tuned. These men are on the move.
What other course that's on the current calendar might be up for sale?

Wouldn't it be great if their company were to include an oval to the road and street circuit events? It would be nice if it were one that is not yet on the calendar as well.

Is Pocono still NOT owned by either ISC or SMI?

As to existing events, do we know if Baltimore's promotions arm is even for sale? I didn't off-hand notice Iowa Speedway on either the ISC or SMI lists, so, could that be the event/track they were hinting at?

Everything is going down hill in Detroit. Maybe it's MIS, I don't know what the sales figures have been for the NASSCAR event the last few years but people can barely pay their homes and apartments right now much less afford sporting events. Maybe they haven't been doing well with attendance.

Just a guess.
