Owning a dragstrip for the past 25 years has little to no ROI for most tracks across the country. Many are happy to break even so when a developer approaches them or salvage company offer to buy the property, most will sell in a NY minute as was the case with Atco. ETown has continued as a motorsports facility without the money losing drag racing and rumor from last year is the land is now approved for housing.
