Dear Reservation Holders, Prospective Members and all other Alpine Stakeholders,
After many unsuccessful attempts to secure construction financing for the Alpine Motorsports Project, the Alpine property in Eldred Township, PA was sold this past Monday, May 20, 2013. The new owner of the property, the PA Game Commission, will not be pursuing a motorsports development but will instead dedicate the land to wildlife management.
Our sincere gratitude is extended to the many Alpine supporters over the past twelve years. We wish you all continued enjoyment of the automotive lifestyle.
Very truly yours,
Alpine Motorsports Club

Their model looked nice, but it this outcome was, indeed, obvious. Alpine, like liberty bell, was always a vapor track. I don't think they were taking $ from reservation holders this go around.

But still, 'automobile lifestyle"? Is that what you get with a 458 and an expensive track membership?

Which is the track that the Mascaro family has major involvement in? I *thought* that facility had a fighting chance.
