It' a shame to loose Island .
With all its problems and quirks it was still a great place to go , at least while Mrs K was still alive.
Nothing like the smell of rotting cabbage and racing fuel!
I got my first Modified Production win there , and raced against future Pro Stock racers like Bob Benza ,when NHRA still had the D1 car club races there.
Saw Garlets and Ivo match race there with Ivo setting the metal fence and the entrance road on fire from a fire burnout !
The number of D1 Champions and standout racers who cut their teeth at Island is probably unequaled by any other track in the Division.
I havn't raced there in several years ,but it's sad to think we'll probably never get the chance to again.
