I hope it can grow into something as well. It would be good for all us car guys here, and when you consider that Raceway Park that was in Englishtown N.J. is no longer there to draw away business, this could be good for the ROI as well. I just hope that people (racers) don't shoot ourselves in the foot and show the "Town" that they were right all along , to not let us go racing there.
In the Dragzine article he points out all the difficulties that building a Drag Strip today will encounter. I know we will have to " walk - before we can run" . Typical small town politics has quagmired this property for way too long. Finally something positive , and being a former Grumman employee
I had always wanted to blast down one of those runways. Lets all keep our fingers crossed on this one.
