Gallatin County, KY

Northern Kentucky Tribune

By the end of the year, the owners of Kentucky Speedway will have paid Gallatin County more than $900,000 for tickets never sold to races never run. NASCAR abandoned the racetrack following the 2020 Quaker State 400, but a 20-year PILOT agreement (Payments In Lieu Of Taxes) obligates Speedway Motorsports Inc. to two annual payments through 2031: a $180,000 lump sum and a $1 per ticket fee with a $230,000 minimum, even if the venue remains vacant.

Stuck in idle: Kentucky Speedway falls short of high hopes four years after last NASCAR race

Here is what drivers had to say after Sunday night’s race at Iowa Speedway. Ryan Blaney — Winner: “What a cool way to win here. This place means a lot to me and means a lot to my mom. We had a lot of people here tonight cheering us on, so they willed us to that one. Overall, I really appreciate the whole 12 boys. I mean, our car was really fast all night and we got a little bit better through the night and two tires was a good call there. I didn’t know how well I was gonna hold on. I started to struggle a little bit at the end, but had enough to hang on. I’m super proud of the effort. … It makes up a little bit from a couple weeks ago.”

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022. There was no doubt in his mind what it was: a tom lynx, judging by its blocky head.

Two swimmers in their 30s, and one in her 40s, stood out on day two of the Olympic Trials in Indianapolis. From 1928 through 2012, you could count on one hand the number of U.S. Olympic swimmers over the age of 29. The increased professionalization of the sport has more recently incentivized competing well beyond college.
