Sounds like the owner and the sheriff need to have lunch sometime to work this out.
I don't think it's the county guys but the State Troopers causing the ruckus. At least from what I've heard from locals. One told me the State guys hang around on that stretch of road and ticket you for 63 in a 60 MPH zone !
There is a very nice housing development jusy a half mile away on the north side of the freeway. All lots are one acre or more and houses in the 3,000 Sq. Ft.range. I asked one Deputy how that would affect the track and he said as long as IHRA would bring races there then that track would remain there !
I think the situation will improve before next year and it should go smoothly next year.
This is one house for sale in that housing tract and is NICE......
