The speedway in Warrensburg, Missouri is a 3/8 mile High-Banked Clay Oval and racing will continue as normal until mid-September.
He said: “My wife and I recently bought a travel camper, and we are going to put it to use.
“My sons and grand kids all have lives of their own and are very busy with their own careers, so it is time to sell the facility and all that goes with it.
“We will sell it as a race track or for development, but after the final event of the year, we will no longer run CMS as we know it today.”
That means the new owners won’t necessarily need to keep it as a track after 71 years of racing, but could turn the land into something else.
The track sits on 30-plus acres of land with a lake and diesel water pump.
Along with the racetrack itself, the purchase includes the Pub 13 Bar and Restaurant ready to operate.
Two concession stand buildings, the pit office, the equipment storage outbuilding, and two large grandstands are all thrown in.
Race-related electronics includes a 10 x 20 LED message center and virtual scoring and timing board with switch and computer.
It also has a Westhold timing and scoring system and two loudspeaker announcer systems and a newly installed lighting.
The Wells family have also listed two water trucks, two tractors and a push lorry up for sale.
The couple have hosted nearly 390 different drivers at the track and 78 different track champions.
The next meet features the POWRi Midwest Mods on May 31.
The racing season started in April and runs through until the start of autumn.
