A former race track outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, could become a data center campus.

As reported by The Times and BizJournal, the site of the former Pitt International Race Complex in Wampum, Beaver County, has sold for $50 million, equating to around $130,000 per acre.

According to county property records, Wampum I LLC acquired the site from BeaveRun Founders Development LLC.

Wampum’s listed address matches that of Provident Data Centers. The company hasn’t made any official announcement and didn’t reply to requests for comment from local press.

The 2.779-mile (4.473 km) BeaveRun Motorsports Complex opened in 2002. It was acquired by Jim and Kathy Stout in 2011 and renamed to the Pitt International Race Complex. The 400-acre site hosted amateur and professional automobile, motorcycle, and karting events. In October 2025, the Stouts announced the complex would be closing.

The complex is close to a substation and several power lines.

Local officials have yet to hear of any plans around redevelopment of the site.

Provident Data Centers is the data center arm of the Dallas-based real estate development firm Provident, which was founded in 1991.

On its website, Provident lists projects in Grand Prairie, Fort Worth, Garland, Plano, and Austin, Texas, as well as Indiana, Alabama, Missouri, and Pennsylvania. It also lists three ‘legacy’ projects in Dallas and Richardson, as well as Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The developer also announced plans to build a data center on a 200-acre site in northwest Indiana in May 2024, but the plan was rejected. Provident then pitched a seven-building campus in Burns Harbor, Indiana, later that year. The company has partnered with PowerHouse for two data center developments in Texas. Provident has also pitched a project in Missouri.

Provident last year acquired a golf course in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania – some 240 miles east of the race complex – reportedly to redevelop into a data center complex.
