REPORT: Steve Alcorn Shares PRP Reopening Poster - Official Confirmation Pending

𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲:

Early Sunday morning, PRP released official comment through their Facebook page: "... We have been in talks with the Jents of Mudlick Valley Raceway, we have come to an agreement and we are going thru the channels of ownership transfer. We had no idea anything was going to be posted until it was official so it took us by surprise. We appreciate all your support and hope everyone will get behind this family moving forward and once again make PRP THE PLACE TO BE 🏁"

A surprising development hit the regional racing community just moments ago when veteran motorsports photographer Steve Alcorn shared a promotional poster announcing the long‑awaited return of Portsmouth Raceway Park, with a target reopening date of July 2nd, 2026... the night before the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series are scheduled to tackle the high banks of Atomic Speedway.

The poster immediately ignited excitement across Southern Ohio. The graphic also references new ownership under the Jent Family, working in partnership with Mudlick Valley Raceway, and promises continued improvements as the historic track prepares for its next chapter.

However, as of this report, Portsmouth Raceway Park has not released any official public announcement on its website or social media channels. With Steve being the source, it seems legitimate, but without a formal statement from PRP, its status remains unconfirmed.

Given the significance of PRP’s potential return, especially after years of silence and uncertainty, this development has understandably generated a wave of speculation and hope among fans, teams, and locals like myself who have long awaited news of the track’s future.

AMWM has reached out directly to PRP’s ownership group for official confirmation.

This report will be updated immediately if or when the track issues a formal statement.

For now, the region watches and waits... and if this poster proves accurate, July 2nd could mark one of the most emotional and historic nights Southern Ohio dirt racing has seen in years.
