Other news concerned the Lucas Oil race deciding to not return to the Taz in 2020. The news was a huge shock to fans and Tazewell Speedway track owner Gary Hall spoke about the news, “We truly appreciate the thousands of fans that covered the Tazewell hillside over the past 15 years.

Tazewell Speedway was never notified of any problems or corrections that needed to be made at any of the LOLMS events. We have made every effort to work with series management to ensure that Tazewell remains on the Lucas schedule; however, series management has elected to eliminate one of only three tracks that has been with them since the beginning and now after 15 years have kicked us to the curb. We hope to see you at one of our events in 2020, we will race on. Thank you.”

Tazewell Speedway has been on the LOLMS schedule since 2005, and the winner of the first event was Jimmy Owens. Tazewell Speedway will close for the winter months and reopen spring of 2020.
