This may not be an issue for the test/tune crowd but well see how long the weekly bracket racers are willing to stick it out because it's the closest track to them and I'm told duke ain't coming back unless they pay him what they owe him.

Could you just make all your posts, "Island dragway did me wrong and I hope they do not survive". it would save you a lot of time typing.

Am I the only one that seems to understand that a member of the original family needs to be involved in the ownership of the track to conform to land use restrictions??.. that would be Melissa.. get used to it!!

I think it's great that people have gotten involved to revive Island Dragway.. BEST OF LUCK!!!

And the nay-sayers can race elsewhere.. OR NOT!!

Septic is not acceptable to the authorities hence no water or bathrooms...

Work to correct it would cost $40 G's

This is what I was told about the water/bathroom issue.

chris ok · 06-30-2013, 12:38 PM

They just need some crappy sponsors to get the bathrooms and water running, lol.
Best luck to them getting the track back in the first place. Hope to make my first visit there.

I'll stop by too...like to take in a Nostalgia day....

How about a Stock/SS combo race?

Too early to ask about the schedule for rest of the year?

1347 · 06-30-2013, 09:54 PM

island has the full rest of the year schedule posted on there website, Im sure if they get someone to sponsor an event they will edit it, but it goes all the way to December www.islanddragway.com
