It is private, we raced 1/8th mile on it this summer and for the past two years when our 1/4 mile track closed. It actually got IHRA sanctioned, but closed because of a lease dispute. The problem is some of the racers bitched too much because the guys were new to the business with no prior racing know-how. I don't know much about the business end of it, but some of us were even thinking about a co-op.
