Let me this straight, a person put's a rumor on here and alot of unfounded comments appear and not one bit of verification of the rumor. Let's wait until someone can either confirm or deny the rumor. This one could go on forever like the one about Island.

I agree. I merely posted to see if any of what I heard was true. I race there like others here do, so I can only hope it's not true. We wil see what develops.

If Englishtown goes **** up would the NHRA bring Atco back into the fold for major events?

If Etown goes I don't think Atco can replace it , But MIR at Buds Creek Md is in better shape then Epping right now . They have enough parking for the pro's and a tower with suite's and there are no better track operator's then the Millers

There would not be any "hook up" problems at MIR. Traction capitol of the Nation!

Englishtown was a supertrack before the word existed....
Very large..... and all paved pits for a number of years....lots of spectator parking....smooth as glass.....and has been redone a number of times...
Lots of spectator seating.

Two ways in and out......

Only drawback is the shutdown is relatively short but unless you look at the actual stats for many tracks you would not notice it....

Also has a completely seperate 1/8th mile track....

A very serious Motorcross track.....and a Motrocross practice track...

And a small paved road race type track......

And they race carts every Sunday in the spectator side parking lot...

The place is very active and usually well attended....

Sell it? Well sure anything is possible but so far that has not happened and has been a rumor for years and years.

Atco is a great place but it is small compared to E-Town and so is Epping....and both need major upgrades to even come close to E-Town....

I watched the race from Epping and they need to repave the shutdown area from the look of those Pro Stockers bouncing the nose slowing down...

Looked like they had a great turnout at Epping but I really don't think the place is all that big......I was there many years ago....Sat up on the hill at the finsihline for a while and watched.....

I've seen in print David Napp stating that this latest round of rumors was an April Fools joke.

Anything is possible but if the track-haters around Raceway Park knew what was good for them they'd prefer the track over a mall or more housing development (which by the way, there is plenty of work going on just off of Texas Road). Imagine how much worse the traffic would be on any given weekend, starting with the fact that the local roads aren't big enough.

Would never happen.
