Englishtown Closed To Drags

[Tom Goldman]

Rumors of closing were flying around Sat .before the Div. banquet . Although nothing was said publicly ,a few people who have real connections to the track said that one of the dirt tracks is being moved or changed and someone drew the usual January forecast of doom for the dragstrip.

there is a story about the track closing right here on class racer magazine, who are the supposed insiders that gave out this information?

This is what I heard also.

If it did happen it would be a huge blow to Div 1, what other Div 1 track could host a National Event.

Run 2 at Epping or Maple Grove, like Charlotte. Area tracks should benefit from local programs, as well.

We are fighting to find a location for a track on Long Island, hopefully one day, over 16,000 members still trying to find a piece of land

Where is (was) the Local Chamber of Commerce, Tourism Board, Restuarant-Motel owners association? These entities should be our friends, advocates.....housing cars do not spend money as we do....I make it a point to mention to the motel/eateries, etc that I am spending $ with them as I attend to local track....

The Problem with Long Island is the toll & traffic to get into the city. I have a few .90 racers in my series who come from LI and the horror stories about traffic and how much they spend in tolls will make anyone cringe and not want to go.
