Hoping and praying won't help, well praying maybe. God drove a Fury. The most obvious thing that will save your track is to organize every racer, car guys and gals, dealers and parts houses and anyone elseyou can think of that may or has made a penny off the track to be there and support the retaining of the facility. Have the figures in hand to show how much this has contributed to the tax base. Hotels , Motels, campgrounds and cafes. Work the tax angle. Counties love taxes. Get the NHRA to have a rep there to extol the virtues. Find someone wealthy to sponsor the facility. Have a rep from the roundy guys there and the road racers. Offer the facility for drivers ed and even driving lessons. Every advantage to having the facility must be pointed out. Even play the street racer card. The most important point- The county commision must want it or nothing will get it for you. So numbers of people there is not the most important part, numbers of vocal voters supporting it is. Get everyone that will listen talking it up to the commision. It will be a long haul till this is finalized . Dont give up or even slack off. Even if they initally say no ,keep hammering it, bring it back around.If they do buy it, they are going to need someone with organizational and public skills to operate it for them and the guy that managed to get it saved would be a likely candidate.
