@MatthewDillner Behold … The fairgrounds speedway site of 1909 before @NASCAR paved it over in the late-1950s. Beautiful, wasn’t it? #RestoreOurFairgrounds
English
So, let’s get this straight… The account that is named “Restore our Fairgrounds” is basically looking to destroy the great history of Auto Racing on the property. 🤔 Then, the account is attempting to troll (& it is backfiring) those within the sport. Got it. 👌🏼

NASCAR is the Latin of American sports. It’s a dead language.

@Hendrick_488 @trentpd @NASCAR Community green space (versus an asphalt playground for billionaires like @MarcusSMI) is one of the main goals. Here’s what the fairgrounds speedway site looked like before @NASCAR paved it over in the late 1950s …
English
@trentpd @NashFairgrounds @NASCAR Money. They want the Fairgrounds for their own personal benefit. This group is backed by a billionaire. They want to turn it into so called affordable housing. While saying they want it returned to a Green space. In reality they just don’t want racing so they can sell houses.

Another @NASCAR track bites the dust. #DyingSport

Fontana está morta! A pista americana está abandonada. Após ter 80% do seu terreno vendido. Era esperado a construção de uma pista menor, de meia milha, mas isso nem saiu do papel. Mais uma pista morta pela especulação imobiliária na Califórnia #NASCAR

@cfolsom_racing @NASCAR Green space is God’s original creation. It actually predated auto racing. If you prefer asphalt to green space, then I guess we’ll just agree to disagree.
English
@NashFairgrounds @NASCAR The first automobile race at the site was in 1904. The first State Fair was held there in 1906.
NASCAR sanctioned or not, racing has been a staple of your beloved fairgrounds longer than anyone currently on this planet has been alive…

Dear Nashville: This North Carolina-based driver would really like to run up credit-card debt on the backs of local taxpayers and bring the “Hooter’s Pro Cup” to our publicly owned fairgrounds. #NuffSaid
Landon Huffman@LandonHuffman
This past weekend’s @CARSTour race at @RaceFairgrounds very much had that 90s BGN or prime Hooter’s Pro Cup feel. Huge crowd. Huge location. Big sponsors.

@cfolsom_racing This is what the fairgrounds speedway looked like before @NASCAR paved it over in the late-1950s. We know you’re not from around here, so we’re happy to school you. #RestoreOurFairgrounds #LetTheVotersDecode

@NashFairgrounds The name “Restore Our Fairgrounds” is pretty ironic considering the site has been a racetrack longer than it’s been the TN State Fairgrounds, lol.
What would you like to restore it to??? A time that doesn’t exist?
English
@LandonHuffman You’re exactly right. We know nothing about Hooter’s. And we don’t want Hooter’s in our neighborhoods. outkick.com/sports/nascar-…
English
@NashFairgrounds The Hooter’s Pro Cup is a defunct series that no longer exists. I wish those of you who speak nonsense were halfway educated before opening your mouth about things you have no knowledge of.

@NashFairgrounds @DardenForTN @MarcusSMI Do too many vrooms vrooms make your TDS flare up? Motorsports is full of diversity. What ethnicity is it that you're afraid will come to town?

Recommended reading for all Nashvillians. Bristol Motor Speedway is dying. No wonder NASCAR billionaire @MarcusSMI yearns for publicly owned property in Nashville.

@SD7137577432439 Dear @SD7137577432439: Thank you for your contribution to this conversation. Please tell @DardenForTN that we said: “Try harder.” And please tell @MarcusSMI that we said: “Find better political operatives who aren’t abject liars.” nashvillescene.com/news/pithinthe…
English
@fidgetsfive @DaleJr @MarcusSMI I stand corrected: @DaleJr is merely a $300 million-aire. But thanks for confirming that he is, in fact, a filthy rich interloper who’s trying to force Nashville taxpayers to underwrite his personal plaything. Your contribution to this conversation is greatly appreciated🙏
English
@NashFairgrounds @DaleJr @MarcusSMI Not a billionaire, you fucking moron. At least get your info straight.
English
More out-of-state NASCAR special interests, led by North Carolina billionaires @DaleJr and his buddy @MarcusSMI, trying to bully Nashville taxpayers into financing their obnoxious hobby in a failing sport. The loudmouths in the NASCAR manosphere are loud and belligerent, but they don’t cast votes in Music City. #LetTheVotersDecide

Dale said the opposition to racing at Nashville Fairgrounds isn't as strong as social media makes it seem. 👀

It’s an “uphill battle” because it’s a terrible idea. How about this: Every Nashville taxpayer who wants to foot the bill for billionaire @MarcusSMI’s vanity @NASCAR speedway in their neighborhood, please raise your hand on this thread. (Note: Out-of-state racing fanboys/trolls need not apply.) #LetTheVotersDecide

Dear Nashville: NASCAR is a dying sport propped up by @MarcusSMI and other North Carolina billionaires who want local taxpayers to foot the bill for their personal hobby. Sincerely, Your Neighbors #LetTheVotersDecide

NASCAR got paid. Now it has a viewership problem awfulannouncing.com/racing/got-pai…

Stepping back in time is accurate. The Fairgrounds Speedway is like taking a trip back to the 1950s. Nashville deserves something better in 2026. #LetTheVotersDecide
Guttman@Guttman75
Walking through the tunnel @RaceFairgrounds in Nashville last Friday was like stepping back in time and I loved it Thanks to @LandonHuffman @CarrollSpeed @HighRockVodka @texasroadhouse for letting me be a part of the @CARSTour event

@care_nashville It’s creepy how out-of-state NASCAR special interests are full-on obsessed with Nashville. The crazy eyes say it all.

Interesting to see Kenny Wallace (aka “The Lesser Wallace”) chiming in on Nashville from the comfort of his La-Z-Boy chair in Missouri.
Let’s see how taking shots at our Mayor for keeping his campaign ethos of “no more taxpayer dollars for stadiums” works out for them.

Kenny Wallace (@Kenny_Wallace) discusses the @DaleJr effect at Nashville Fairgrounds
English
@BenEagles Still to be determined: How many tickets from the so-called “sellout” were actually tickets sold — versus tickets given away in desperation to fill those seats. Our Fair Board sources say at least half those tickets were giveaways.
English
What’s embarrassing is citing fake stats from Grok’s AI slop.
But hey, nice try deflecting from the sellout crowd at the Fairgrounds Speedway on Saturday night.
Nashville CARE@care_nashville
On-site estimates put attendance at 26,000, and there is speculation that Bristol could lose a date. Embarrassing. Marcus Smith and SMI *already* have a Cup race in Nashville. If they can't fill 30k seats at Bristol, there is ZERO reason to add another venue in the same place.
