Malls are dying so I doubt that would happen.

We used to race there early in the spring as they opened earlier than Lebanon Valley, even won my class once..Super sad to see hunk of history is ending. Surprised that in a population area THAT big, they can't make eno0ugh money to support it. Very sad...I mean I met Linda Vaughn there once!!!!

The decision to close the drag strip without notice is a little puzzling, but I'm sure they have their reasons.
Not my side of the country, but sad to see none the less.

I know the track, was under pressure for along time about the noise issue. Because on sundays, unless it was a special event. You had to have mufflers on your car, to race. The track was there, before the developments. Moved in next to the track. BBBenny

Realtors don't show neighboring homes on Sundays.

We have roughly 2000 acres and 2 10,000 ft solid concrete, military spec runways doing NOTHING out on the eastern end of Long Island (Calverton), NO residential exposure for miles. There is a group lobbying to open a track there 'Long Island Needs A Drag A Strip". Cross your fingers, but a long shot at best

Another piece of my childhood gone. I still can't drive by exit 70 on the Long Island Expressway without thinking of National Speedway!
