NASCAR Nugget

While researching ideas on what draws people to the region, we ran across several folks talking about a possible future attraction.
Word is NASCAR has been shopping around for land in southwest Missouri to build a new racetrack. Sources in McDonald County have confirmed this and even said NASCAR has identified about 1,200 acres of property near Anderson, Mo., a few miles north of the state line.
There is a caution flag, though. The land includes about eight separate farms and not all of the farmers are on the same track. In fact, we’ve been told there are a few not willing to sell, regardless of the price.
Calls to NASCAR, based in Daytona, Fla., were not returned, but it sounds like this deal has a roadblock or two to get through before it reaches the finish line.
