Post Mayoral Career
After stepping down from office, Dow once again went to work for his brother-in-law, this time for the Centra-Lite venture. He also became involved with the effort to create the Alabama Motorsports Park on a site located north of Mobile, with Dow playing a major role in the selection of the Mobile County site over a possible site in Baldwin County. Dow currently serves as a member of the board of the track venture that seems to have stalled its plans to build in north Mobile County.

“He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
