Speedway to manage casino project Wyandotte County
Kansas Speedway tied to a $680 million Hard Rock Hotel and Casino plan in Wyandotte County after the Lottery Gaming Facility Review Board selected Kansas Entertainment, a joint venture of the speedway and The Cordish Co., to build and run a state owned resort casino overlooking the track. The proposal promises 3000 slot machines, a 300 room hotel and convention center, and retail outlets near Turn Two, aiming to attract a major tourist draw and generate substantial state revenue. Final approval rests with the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission after background checks. The board also postponed Sept 26 decisions on Ford County plans as financing questions linger.
