SCARBOROUGH — Engines roared and cars raced around the oval for the final time Sunday at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway.

The race track is being sold to developers, leaving just three auto racing tracks in Maine: Wiscasset Speedway, Oxford Plains Speedway and Speedway 95 in Hermon.

Beech Ridge owner Andy Cusack told the Portland Press Herald that he was approached by a developer looking for a large tract of land in Scarborough.

“It wasn’t so much a case of me deciding it was the right time to sell. The right time came to me. We opened a dialogue and it progressed enough to where it made sense,” Cusack said.

The news was disappointing for the racing community.

Todd Libby and his sister, Sara Schroeder, grew up in Porter and were raised at the track, where they spend weekends.

Libby said many lessons were learned at the track.

“This place has taught me how to win, and how to lose — and how to carry myself like a man when I do lose,” said Libby. “You just go out and work harder.”
