UMI PERFORMANCE ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF CNB BANK RACEWAY PARK AND INTRODUCES PLANS FOR UMI MOTORSPORTS PARK
PHILIPSBURG, PA [RAMEY WOMER] -- UMI Performance is pleased to announce the acquisition of CNB Bank Raceway Park in Clearfield, PA. The property is a 5/8 mile asphalt oval located on 85 acres which hosted nearly 50 years of exciting wheel to wheel racing. UMI plans to convert this property into a multi-use facility with an emphasis on UMI product testing as well as hosting auto-x and road racing style events. The asphalt oval configuration will be preserved as-is which will allow testing rental by professional oval teams as well as possible ride-n-drive events hosted by UMI Performance.
Short term plans include cosmetic improvements, a scoreboard and signage upgrade and paving work in the infield to enable product testing and short course road racing/auto-x racing events. Plans are already being made to host a soft opening for the August 2018 UMI Cruise-In Autocross at the new UMI Motorsports Park. The grandstand seating and extremely fan friendly venue will add an exciting twist and make this one of the most unique spectator friendly autocross events in the nation.
