Englishtown Closed To Drags

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.

I'm for 2 at the Grove or a National @ Richmond

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.

I understand that but we have thousands of racers already on the island, they would provide the day in day out money that would keep the track running, and if it can get a couple larger events a year it would do great. We've already have a task force formed by the county legislature office to help fins a suitable piece of land, and are talking with a lot of towns to try to find a place that will work, the more people that we can get to join shows that it is a serious effort.

Kind of a ho-hum statement from NHRA, would have thought that based solely on the revenue the National event generated that they would have stepped up to assist the Napp family....with the great car counts and crowds seen in Division 1 you'd have thought they wanted more than just Epping and Maple Grove National events; perhaps they will step up with more later.
