Re: Heartland Park Topeka---latest?!?
As of Friday Heartland Park Topeka owners reported they were holding off any 2015 race scheduling until after this months city council meeting, with the exception of the May 22-24 NHRA event. Apparently due to pressure the city council has opted to hold a vote on buying the track with State Star bonds rather than proceed as last reported.
A petition has been started in support of the buy out and saving HPT. https://www.change.org/p/heartland-p...nd-park-topeka |

Re: Heartland Park Topeka---latest?!?
We are trying to decide wherever or not to go to the national. With a little over a month to go before the race, are there any decisions made yet?

Larry, the National Event is a for sure deal, and as I understand the doubleheader divisional is also.

about the national event. NHRA is commited with sponsors and everything else. I am more worried about this track closing and blowing a hole in the middle of D5 and the whole country as far as that goes for NHRA drag racing.....
