SIGN INLa Jolla, CA – April 10, 2025 – Storage Exchange, a leading national real estate firm specializing in alternative asset classes, announces the successful sale of the iconic Willow Springs International Raceway in Rosamond, California.
Willow Springs International Motorsports Park is a sprawling 600-acre complex encompassing seven diverse racetracks catering to virtually every discipline within motorsports. Strategically located one hour north of Los Angeles, the park has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1953. Renowned for its substantial elevation changes and consistently high average speeds, Willow Springs has earned its title as “The Fastest Track in the West” and remains one of the most challenging and respected circuits in the United States.
Willow Springs has hosted several firsts in American motorsports history, solidifying its legendary status worldwide. These milestones include the first two NASCAR events held west of the Mississippi River, the inaugural Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) sanctioned motorcycle race in the U.S., the first American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) sanctioned events, the first 24-hour motorcycle endurance race, the introduction of kart road racing to America, and the first California Sports Car Club (Cal Club) races held on a purpose-built road course. The park’s crown jewel is its original 2.5-mile road racing circuit, meticulously patterned after the classic road racing traditions of Europe. Remarkably, this circuit remains unchanged from its original 1953 configuration, preserving its historic character and demanding layout.
Storage Exchange leveraged its deep expertise in strategic asset disposition to successfully navigate this unique sale. This historic transaction was co-represented by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, who contributed its extensive community presence to support Storage Exchange in effectively connecting with a wide spectrum of potential buyers. Through a targeted marketing strategy, Storage Exchange generated substantial interest, presenting more than 15 competitive offers to the seller. The website listing garnered over 20,000 direct views throughout 9 different countries, and was complemented by an impressive 11,300+ views of the engaging Willow Springs virtual tour video, demonstrating the property’s widespread appeal.
“We’re proud to have represented Willow Springs in this landmark deal,” stated Hunter Molnar, Managing Director at Storage Exchange, “Especially as Storage Exchange expands our company’s focus into specialized alternative asset classes.”
“Representing Chris and the entire Huth family in this impactful and historic transaction has been a true honor.
