So, with Willow Springs Racetrack up for Sale/closed? what happens to the Spring Fling track day?
Are there any dates or replacement tracks considered/available?

Understand, I don't want to start any false rumors here. All I know is the Track is officially up for sale as of June 2024, and their posted online calendar says closed at end of December and lists nothing further.
I'm mainly looking for confirmation or more information.

We don’t have a finalized Spring Fling date quite yet. So that will dictate track day date.

Not sure if Willow has sold yet. And maybe they just haven’t posted 2025 dates yet.

I have worked Sunfest WPB event for 39 of its 40 years. It's almost a 3-week gig and financially very worthwhile for me. Past Performers - SunFest | Downtown West Palm Beach
The downside is it always overlapped for me logistics wise Spring Fling at Willow. Sunfest has had rain the past 5 of 6 events, and COVID was also a big hit.
They announced yesterday the event is canceled in 2025 for reasons that might be obvious.
15 minutes later I was online scoping out Spring Fling 2025, and here we are, no dates, and track up for sale. Oh well.

A month or more ago I heard a certain woman made a bid to buy Willow Springs. Haven't heard anything since. And yes, I heard it 'directly' from her in one of her videos on Youtube.

 

[j-c-c-62]

Is she a developer or a potential racetrack owner/promoter?

 

[amxautox]

A very enthusiastic car builder/modifyer , some road course race driving, drag racing, has done some acting in action/car movies. Has a very successfull Youtube channel. Owns some exotic cars and '69 Camero, and modifies Ferraris and so on. I've been watching her videos the past few months.

I got burned out for awhile. Sold the AMX in April, and '71 Sebring in May.

Emelia Hartford is her name, there was also another car related company who was preparing an offer. I haven't heard anything further about either offer.

Hey Tom! Satellite is resting comfortably while I'm working on the '71 Coronet.

Hope you are still ok with the car. I still haven't found that base plate to carb adaptor ring I made.
