Default Englishtown Rumor

Rumor has it again that the Knapp family has sold the track and the land and the buyers will honor the contract with NHRA till the end and then close and build houses.

Does anybody know if there is any truth to this??

As I recall, the track was first sold in 1976 and has been sold every year since.

Sell it, then move the race to one of those Indian reservations, they'll make money. Betting on each race and slot machine between each seat, now you got something to do between the oil downs and pre stage shenanigans. Everything tax free.
