The track sat dormant for four years until brothers Rick and Sam Northup took it over. With Rick's daughter Samantha Archabal and cousin Christopher Northup, they cleared the overgrown property, reworked the launch pad and lengthened the shutdown area. The eighth-mile strip runs IHRA Summit SuperSeries points races and produced an IHRA world champion, Wesley Lockhart, in 2023.
