South Georgia Motorsports Park Press Release:
ADEL – Ozzy Moya, owner of South Georgia Motorsports Park in Adel, Georgia has invested a great deal of time and money to bring drag racing back to South Georgia. As a good neighbor, Moya stands on his promise to the local community to build a sound barrier wall at South Georgia Motorsports Park. The wall is built and it is massive, standing 12 feet high, 140 ft long and six inches thick. The wall covers the back of the ¼ mile dragstrip, creating a strong structure that noise will be focused upward where it will dissipate straight up into the atmosphere. Now, to paint the structure and hunt for a sponsor for advertising opportunities.
The next step for the Raceway will be to begin the rebuild of the VIP suites above the spectator seating. As many remember, a tornado came through the facility and destroyed the suites. Currently, the materials are on order and the reconstruction will begin next week. Many exciting changes for South Georgia Motorsports park. Keep watching for updates..
