Clearing the air on Eldora Speedway

This track has not been sold and is not for sale. We plan on keeping it for a long time. 

[@bhuff4748]

Never ever quit getting goosebumps when I walk in the gate and hear those motors rumbling! Been to a lot of good dirt tracks but Eldora is just something special!

[@GospelGary]

Unfamiliar with the social media gossip heretofore that begat Tony's statement, but I know & appreciate his commitment to the honor & responsibility bestowed upon him by Earl & Bernice and that he takes same very seriously. Kudos, Tony.

[@MosinMan76254]

Your text fits your name perfectly. I've never read heretofore other than in the word. God Bless You Brother!

[@MosinMan76254]

@user-ru5jy5lr4g That's a lie but nice try. Troll on... and Jesus loves you too!

[@lindaowens2657]

[@garyjackson3531]

Well said.

[@larryeddings3185]

Eldora and Tony Stewart! 👍👍

[@johngraver5350]

Tony Stewart keep doing what you want to do 😊

[@johnfebozzi8896]

Hi Tony. Relieved to hear the truth from you and your passion with Eldora. Screw the liars and trolls, plus good call with NASCAR, they are a sinking ship. Im a long time NHRA bracket racer and a big fan of you and Leah Best wishes to you both and you race teams for lots of success.

[@aaronpeart4944]

Lets go tony 100 percent smoke fan

[@braylenconner3]

I agree Tony, when hitting that hill and seeing the campers it’s awesome!

[@waynepuckett3150]

Good seeing you, Champ!!

[@goldhunter9641]

Flo Racing, PLEASE TURN THE VOLUME UP on Livestream to be able to hear the cars when they’re on The Track starting Tonight Friday Night,, it’s Barely anything you can hear and the announcers volume is way too loud,, so switch it out to the racetrack, so We at home watching can hear the cars

[@scottkernan9007]

Thank you and thank you again there's only one Eldora

[@greathitnick3034]

Seems like he loves everything Motorsports besides NASCAR 😂

[@garyjackson3531]

NASCAR is a grind. He found drag racing, which brought him to Leah. He's having fun again.

[@eazymoneyracing]

Get Cleetus to host an event out there! Place is amazing and with him would be even better

[@azoldguy9025]

Clearly someone had ill intent.

[@sicfrynut]

that's the new in thing to do. lie. except on a national level.

[@djplayskeys]

Likely a NASCAR fan that’s mad SHR is shutting down. It’s a smart business decision by both Smoke and Gene. Many of the NASCR team owners have said it’s been years since they turned a profit.

[@johnnystanley4469]

Smoke 100%

U were a proud Cup Series team owner at one point as well... 🤷

[@joeblow5154]

Maybe Tony will name his first kid Eldora. 😁😁

[@unfrozenleaf970]

Has Stewart made an official public announcement that Stewart-Hass is closing?

[@GIVIDIOS]

Yeah, I wish it wasn't a thing

[@gullreefclub]

I think it stinks that Gene Hass and Tony have made that decision but I have to respect their decision. That said I can also understand their decision because the direction that NASCAR has been going with the sport is quite honestly not sustainable. Think about it Jeff Gordon has said HMS has not turned a profit in years and I am sure some other teams are either losing money or just breaking even and this is totally NASCAR’s fault because of the rules packages and the fact that NASCAR (The France family) wants to keep almost all the tv money as opposed to spreading the wealth around some like the NFL, NBA, MLB, and Hockey. In short if NASCAR doesn’t change its ways other teams are going to fold and continue to do so until NASCAR changed its ways

[@alkennedy1124]

Says who,it needs to be on here over and over ,so gossiping is not all over the place,right, Stewart Haas racing Public Announcement where??? I heard that from NASCAR race hub I think,,,,thanks BigAl California

[@unfrozenleaf970]

@@gullreefclub while I appreciate everything you said, my comment was merely about Stewart failing to make a public announcement to the fans. He owes that much to the fans. I am still waiting for a video to be released with Tony himself addressing to the fans. He is obviously too busy doing other things at Eldora.

[@neilobrien4454]

Wife not making him sell that

[@TheOfficialRandomGuy]

Yet. 😂

[@bbrcummins1984]

Jealousy will get you nowhere in life

[@garyjackson3531]

The only thing Leah made Tony do was lose some weight. That's so he could drive HER Top Fuel car.

[@gordonlitz4824]

Tony Stewart is a bad a$$

[@alkennedy1124]

It’s needed to have a News conference, on all tony news, if this was a story, then is anything true Thanks BigAl California

[@hoochgiese4735]

🤯

[@tomasmowery164]

The tracks up for sale because I could buy it but seriously if it was true the track would go underground so I'm glad Tony Stewart is keeping it. But if you ever sell when you get to your 80s or 90s you should sell it to Kyle Larson.

[@GASparky217]

I don’t think Tony would ever sell Eldora

[@christopherenger1602]

He once said that about his cup team

[@GASparky217]

@@christopherenger1602 True, but I think Tony is just fed up with NASCAR. He’s even said that he’s not allowed to speak his mind because nascar would target SHR with penalties and fines

[@garyjackson3531]

​@@christopherenger1602 Never once heard Tony say that about NASCAR.

[@UncleBudunkle]

I remember when Tony killed that guy at the sprint car race. That was pretty shitty of him.

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Leah will have the final say so.

[@TyTanium1294]

Is everything ok with Tony? I’m asking that question sincerely. I use to see Tony on a weekly basis for years (raced midgets at the same time). I saw him this weekend at Bristol and he treated me and my daughter like we were paying rent late.

[@garyjackson3531]

Tony is racing in the NHRA full time. He drove an A/Fuel car last season, finishing second in the World Championship to Julie Nataas. About mid-season last year, his wife, Leah who also finished second in the World, in Top Fuel last year, decided she wanted to start a family. They announced it in December. So... Tony is now driving Leah's car, temporarily, until they have a baby.

[@tomlusty8376]

Tony gained a wife and a double chin....

[@CraftySasquatch]

He had that double chin long before the split tail came along.

[@jerrodpatterson8938]

And a freaking flat bill hat.

[@garyjackson3531]

Tony has lost a lot of weight. Had to in order to go drag racing. Especially driving Leah's car.

[@udhh2619]

I did hear he is selling his 4 nascars after this year is that true?

[@NickGreene55]

Yes

[@garyjackson3531]

Well, the latest news is that Gene Haas is keeping one of the Cup teams and both Xfinity teams. Joe Custer will continue running the operation.

[@caidenshafer6951]

Dude sold his nascar team, SRX, and his house. Of course your sponsors thought you were serious

[@caidenshafer6951]

Don't be a flake and people won't think you're a flake

[@justbe4481]

I heard that it was old Kenny Wallace who started the rumor.

[@ALRPNW]

😂

[@bbrcummins1984]

Yeah, he's definitely a loud mouth 🤣

[@RobertDetert]

Don't like the sprint car format for the late models.

[@matthewprioli-baader8451]

He's all but ignored everything BUT the NHRA teams lately, is selling off his NASCAR team, sold the All Star Series, why wouldn't people think hed sell Eldora??

[@lilolme69]

Because neither of those had to do with each other. He sold his Nascar team because he is sick and tired of Nascar and finally had it. He sold the All-Stars because he wanted to see them go further than he could take them. Not sure why people jumped to conclusions... except y'all just like to live in a made-up world. Made-up worlds suck.. come back to reality.

[@JBAlternate]

It is wild to think not long ago he had SRX, NASCAR trucks held races at Eldora, he had videogames named after him, he owned a Cup team. He was arguably the most relevant former NASCAR driver in recent years. Now it's all gone.

[@lilolme69]

@@JBAlternate Nascar cancelled the trucks at Eldora, not Tony. That is 1 of many reasons to get away from Nascar all together. The SRX turned in to a cluster.. not only on the track but off (Anything that involves Ray usually does). When you take 1 by 1, it's not really wild at all. He is retired so I don't see why a game would want him involved when they could have a current driver involved.

[@matthewprioli-baader8451]

@@JBAlternate he owned NASCAR teams (Xfinity and Cup), the All Star Circuit of Champions, SRX, TSR (Dirt Sprint Cars), TSR (NHRA Top Fuel and Funny Car), Eldora, Video Games, and soon it will just be sprint cars, NHRA, and Eldora. And he's selling his house. Anyone else feel like Leah is like Yoko Ono in this? (Only likable and with talent)

[@JBAlternate]

@@matthewprioli-baader8451 Honestly, no. I don't. A lot of that had legitimate reasons for failing/ending. To me, it's just more fascinating than anything that it seemed like he was everywhere for a while and within just a year or two much of it is gone. I am bummed that NASCAR doesn't run Eldora. That was a fun time with the Trucks. I'm not so bummed that his Cup team is selling. He wasn't very involved anyway.

[@1962markstubson]

Chaz is a rumor vandelist that no one should believe.

[@Jeffoutsideback78]

Chaz never claimed the track was sold stop lying

[@JohnWerfelman]

Everyone is a joker

[@mutantryeff]

Why does Tony still keep Donny Schatz on the payroll when Schatz thinks its funny when fire alarms are pulled as he said in a Mobil 1 YT video?

[@lilolme69]

I'd say because his IQ is not as low as yours. I know that's not saying much at all so I'll give Tony a 4 and above on the IQ.

I wonder if he is sponsered by Heatwave..
