Grattan Raceway, a 2.0-mile gem tucked away in Western Michigan, is back on the market—and now it's asking a jaw-dropping $15 million. That’s more than double the rumored $7 million it quietly sought in 2023.
Key Points
-
Legacy: Opened 65 years ago and still owned by the founding family.
-
Facilities: Includes road course, motocross track, concessions, covered seating, and private pool.
-
Famous Fans: Celebs like Paul Newman, Tom Cruise, and Walter Payton once took laps here.
