2010 marks the 20th anniversary year
the Miller family has owned and
operated Maryland Int'l Raceway.
Royce Miller, President and Promoter
of MIR, stated “In some ways it just
doesn't seem possible that it's been
20 years and in others it is hard to
remember a time without the
responsibilities and pressures of
running a facility like this. Our
family has grown up here right
beside the many wonderful families
that race here. Ashley was just 5
years old when we arrived. My mother
would keep an eye on her as she
handed out time slips while Linda
was working the gates way over on
the spectator side entrance road.
Jason was 14 and Chris was 12 when
we started and they worked
souvenirs, gates and selling fuel.
We didn’t have much to work with in
the way of equipment or facility
when we started, but we had
determination, enthusiasm and great
racers, fans and sponsors to build
the MIR of today. We have seen the
kids of our racing families grow up
and have kids of their own. We have
grieved with you over the loss of
loved ones and we have shared the
joy and celebrated your wins and
championships. It isn’t until you
actually pause and look back that
you realize what an incredible 20
years it has been. It's been a
privilege to grow up with you all;
and from the entire Miller family we
look forward to many more years to
come."
