Punta Gorda Speedway

Stolen grand stands

Was early last week on the local NBC station.An airport official stated there was a little snafu with the bidding process and they expected it all to be ironed out by August.I don't recall the mans name but it wasn't the blonde that ripped on Kevin Williams.It was a very short segment maybe not even 30 seconds inlength.

No I wasn't at the lease signing, but from what I have seen and read on here, either the airport owned the stands or Leroy owned them being he acquired them, but Williams had no ownership in them. We the fans are the ones that got ripped off by Williams, when he did everything but burn our track down in hopes that it would never open again. Sure wish I could read that lease agreement and then if I'm wrong I will shut up but I'm just up-set that he had the attitude that if I can't have it no one will.

But that's the latest news I have heard about the place as of today.August target date onthe bidding process (they left it kind of unclear if they meant that to mean start the process or end it)So until then it is just patronize another track.But it's a damn long drive from Lee County anywhere else.

Here is a thought

I could be wrong but here is a thought that sounds logical.

Leroy bought bleachers, he sells track and assets to Bobby. Which makes bobby now owner of bleachers. Bobby then sells track and assets to Kevin, which makes Kevin now owner of the bleachers. Looks like no one stepped up to buy them so would he not still own them???

Just way it looks to me

maybe so

But he drank a lot.And then his girlfriend shot him.

Makes sense. If Kevin bought assets of track from Bobby AND the bleachers were part of those assets, then yes Kevin does own them. I did ask Kevin if he wanted to sell some bleachers. He told me to call Pat around the first week in April. I did call Pat and he said that Kevin has now decided that he does not want to sell any bleachers. No reason given.

The ownership of the bleachers is not the real issue here. The premeditated damage and destruction of the property not owned by him that is the real issue. If you would listened to him in drivers meetings and other conversations along the way you would have heard him say more than once that if the airport authority did not work it out with him he would make sure that no one else would open up a race track there again. Looks like he was a man of word. Or at least tried to be.

So you guys are saying, if I lease a service station lets say and when my lease is up I can take all the lifts from the service bays that was there when I signed the lease??? Wow I didn't know that. I'll never buy another car, I will just lease it for three years and then keep it. Thanks you folks are going to save me a lot of money now that I know how leases work. Will that work on a house too?? I could lease it for a year or two , then gut it of everything inside it and sell it for a profit and go lease another nice house to live in for a few years, Wow I had no idea, man was I ever stupid for buying stuff all these years

I am not saying he has the right to take the bleachers or whatever. I don't think he has the right if they had been permitted and become part of the structure. The damage done to the facility removing the so called personal property is what I am referring to here. No gutting a house out just to remove a sofa and some furniture is not ok!
