E Town rumors are true

Truly SAD!

I had hoped to return to compete there after I retire next year... I made my 1st 1/4 mile pass there in 1968 having grown up in Highland Park, NJ. When I think of how Richie & Vinnie struggled for it's success throughout the early days it's hard to fathom selling out their dream. I guess it's telling of the times we find ourselves in that the demise of both E-town and Pro Stock seems synchronized as was their emergence...

Seems only fitting, since I was at the first, that I go home for the Summernats even if I can't compete, to at least witness and honor the end of a truly golden era in our sport.
