From the get-go, Hennessey wants it to be known this has nothing to do with the company’s performance shop. The Hennessey development center and workshop adjacent to the race track are not offered for sale, and are completely independent from Lonestar Motorsports park.
“This is purely a smart real-estate move,” John Hennessey, founder and head-honcho at Hennessey Performance, said. “If it sells for what we ask, great. If no one buys it, we might end up just keeping it.”
The 55-acre facility features an IHRA-sanctioned quarter-mile dragstrip, with enclosed and air-conditioned concession stands, spectator grand stands with seating for 800, staging lanes, a control tower, lights, timing equipment, among other things. An additional 70 acres are available for “additional cost,” and the ad claims the property could be expanded into a road course.
