Steve Earwood has owned Rockingham Dragway for nearly 31 years and at this weekend’s AMRA AHDRA Jim McClure Nationals he says goodbye, as the track will officially be sold following the event.
During a rain delay, we catch up with the drag racing legend to talk about his marketing and business philosophy, lessons he has learned, his best advice, the current state of drag racing and the NHRA, how he has been able to adapt after losing two NASCAR races that used to pay the bulk of his bills, how he got into hosting Metallica concerts, how he disagreed with Wally Park about the cars being the stars, how a $400 investment made him $250,000 from WWE and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson” and a whole lot more.
