Hunt the Front announced the purchase of Milton, Florida race track Southern Raceway from the Arnold family.

The team made the announcement in a video to YouTube. Joshua Joiner shared, “We are signing the paperwork to become the proud new owners of Southern Raceway.”

Jonathan Joiner said in the video, “We have been working on this deal for months. This deal that happened now, we now own the track, it’s been ongoing for three months. Since October, working on four months. But, really, we’ve been trying to work a deal to get this place for several. And it’s finally come to fruition. And we’re really thankful for it. And we’re really thankful for ya’ll because we couldn’t do it without y’all.”

Throughout the video, the Joiner brothers discussed all the improvements they plan to make to the track. However, Jonathan shared that one of their main goals “is to improve the racing surface, where guys want to come race at Southern Raceway. ‘We love going to Southern. It always races good.'” 

He added, “One of the real early things we’re going to try to do is try to get some new dirt in here.” 

While they’ve got big plans, they won’t be doing it alone. Joshua shared the tracks previous promoter Tom Lowrey and his wife Kim are staying on to help them, “They’ve been operating the track for almost a decade, now before us, but they’re going to be involved for a little bit of a transition and help us get going.”

At the end of the video, the brothers shared, “We are Crate Racing USA sanctioned facility for street stocks, 602, and 604. And IMCA sanctioned for the open wheel mods.”

“We got a $10,000 to-win Crate Racing USA tour show Labor Day weekend right here,” they continued. “Southern Thunder will have their season finale the week before Thanksgiving in November. And then we’ve got four weekends with the USCS Sprint Cars. Two of them coming up in February with the IMCA mods racing for extra money.”
