Quebec's premier racing website, 360nitro.com is reporting that Cornwall Motor Speedway has been sold. Multiple parties were immediately interested in purchasing the top-notch facility after owner Ron Morin made it public that the track was for sale last year, most notably Autodrome Drummond's leader and modified driver Yan Bussiere, although it doesn't appear Bussiere's offer was accepted. The buyers name has not yet been released.
According to the report, the track will become "Cornwall International Speedway" but will see a similar schedule to what Morin had in place over the past few seasons. Three dates have already been announced for 2014, with the Super DIRTcar Series invading the track June 29, and the 358 DIRTcar Series in action on May 18 and August 31. Expect a formal announcement about the sale sometime in January.
Ron Morin took control of the 1/4 mile bullring in 1980 and has turned it into one of the premier facilities in the northeast. The entire article is available by clicking here. If you don't speak French, simply copy and paste the article into "Google Translate."
