Mountain Motor Speedway 3/8 Mile Dirt track Racing Friday nights

07/06/2025

Immediate press release

07-06-25

In the early days of June 2024, we acquired MMS to give racers and fans a place to race close to home. There wasn’t a track open within almost a 2 hour radius of Whitesburg, Ky. (Tracks opened since; 191 speedway, 201 Speedway and Hidden Hollow)

We have poured hours and hours of blood, sweat and ALOT of time at this track of the past 12 months. Lost thousands and thousands of dollars, only to be ridiculed, persecuted and hated at the cost of pretty much nothing. We went into this with great intentions that crumbled at our hands.

Through the last 12 months we have found a lot of new friends and found some friends who was not really much friends all along, but that’s fine as well. The dirt track has not brought in one profitable race since the 2025 race season has begun. The go kart track will not harden enough to be able to race and the drag strip never brought in over 15 cars at the events we were able to run. The weather costed us over 10 events with no breakthrough in site.

As of now, we will be turning the lease back in and there will be no more events held at MMS under this administration. I’m certain there’s a lot of interest to pursue the track and those folks can get in contact with land owner Kim Maggard.

No one forced us out or shut us down. We knew coming into this, it wouldn’t be long until a couple tracks would fire back up and that’s exactly what we wanted!

At the end of the day, one of the things we wanted has happened. We gave people a place to race until other tracks reopened. We are racers who love the sport. We honestly would much rather focus on our racing program moving forward, and that’s what we plan to do. We appreciate each and everyone of you who have had our backs through this crazy ride. And we hope nothing but the absolute best for the next years down at MMS for whoever decides to ride the wave! 🏁🏁

This Friday night, we honor and remember one of the greats from eastern Kentucky, Jamie ‘MOE’ Slone!

In his #19 race car, he was always recognized for the bright orange and purple colors that always stood out. He had success almost instantly and had a knack for driving that you just can’t teach, your blessed with. Many people loved him, but with winning came the ugly side of the sport, the haters. Even tho he may of heard some boo’s in the stands, he smiled and enjoyed it. There’s one thing about it, EVERYONE knew when the white and chrome racing hauler from HollyBush rode into the racetrack!

One of the last rides Moe picked up was a Latemodel owned by Eugene Slone. I’d call him every night of the week leading up to Saturday to make sure he didn’t forget me on raceday. I remember once as me, him and Phillip were on our way to 201 to race, he said man my stomach is tore up. I thought he was sick, he looked back and smiled and said ‘Red, if you ever get to where you don’t get butterflies in your stomach you best just quit and walk away’, and that always stuck with me.

This weekend means a lot to me and a lot of
Other people, as I’ll always say Jamie had more potential than anyone from around here if he’d been given the right opportunity to showcase his talents. Sometimes even with less equipment, he was able to do more with it.

He is certainly missed down here. We want to honor him this Friday night by family, friends, freedom, awesome racing and good food, some of Jamie’s favorite things!!

Come join us Friday night and honor one of the greats, who’s life was cut off short but left a HUGE impact in the racing world! I’m just like him, just a boy from caney trying to keep digging until I get where I’m going. Thanks to Phillip and all Jamie’s kids for allowing us to honor him Friday night! Godspeed my friend! #19 🏁
