The way I see it, it's inevitable that this happens in the tri-state NY, NJ, CT region, sad but true. Like Island and E-town, Atco is iconic.
I also miss Dover Dragstrip and Connecticut Dragway.
God bless Lebanon Dragway and New England Dragway! May you burn rubber forever.

Made my first pass there in 1967 in my bosses 1967 Chrysler Newport. He said here, take my car and see what it'l do. I remember they made me take off the hubcaps. I think it ran a 17 something, but I was hopelessly hooked. Went two rounds, thought I was hot stuff! Lets hope the deal falls through.
