When people think of the glitz of South Florida sports, Guillermo Santa Cruz wants them to think of NASCAR.
A new track president means it’s time for a new chapter in the Homestead-Miami Speedway's history.Guillermo Santa Cruz’s plans to put the South Florida facility through another metamorphosis. However, this one isn’t on the aesthetic side, but rather the way the facility is perceived.Homestead-Miami Speedway has undergone several metamorphoses since Ralph Sanchez constructed the 1.5-mile track to help Dade County recover economically from Hurricane Andrew, which devested the area in 1992.
Santa Cruz believes there’s untapped potential for the speedway within the local community as well as South Florida in the events it hosts. He also believes the pride that should exist there due to champions being crowned at the facility for 18 years isn’t always evident because so much occurs in the area. Santa Cruz believes the speedway should embrace the Southern Florida sports scene instead of shying away from it.
