Jellico ownership and what not. I remember Tony talking about purchasing it earlier in the year , I didnt know Mike Weaver and Tony went in on it together though.

Anyone got more info ?

Last time I talked to Mike, that's what he told me is Tony and him went in on it... Weavers are currently living on the property as far as I know... My memory is faded tho I don't know the details.

We actually rented the park the day that Tony sent the check to purchase the land. It was a bunch of money. Not sure if he wants that disclosed or not although he was telling everyone there. He bought it for pretty much the same reason as gray rock from what I understood. It was mined a long time ago but some of the coal was left due to equipment technology(if that makes sense). So he is going to open a park for riding and mine it as well. He seemed like it was a gamble to do this because he wasn't real sure if all that much coal was left. I'm just trying to remember what he told me so don't hold me to all that I have said as I could be wrong about some of it. Later. :flipoff1:

I knew the Weaver's were moving there, and have some other family moving/living there also. It is going to serve as homebase for XRRA it appears with one East event there and the the Finals. From what I understand Tony is going to mine it and create an ORV Park similar to Gray Rock. This happened a while back, but there has not bee much said about it.
