Re: Aquasco Speedway
My first drag race was there in 1965. My dad took me to watch Dave Pyle's with his 289 Comet. When later with Dickie Estevez, but by then St. Mary's Dragway (MIR) was open. Around 1977, I helped Tod and Larry when they tried to open it.
Saddly, what little that was left, burnt last year. Wade may remember, but Baden lost one of their trucks in the fire. The Procopio family still owns the property to this day. Until recenty, the property was stilled zoned as a race track, but they could not get a license to open it due to noise issues.
