Wow, I actually have some old color 8mm home movies from that place. Didn't know St. Thomas was still around! One of the films I have (circa 1973) shows my brother's 1969 GTO, with about 40,000 on the odometer, all original, and hubcaps, smoking the right rear tire against our friend's 1969 Dart 340.

Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove Wisc. is also in trouble, but for different reasons. After all these decades, with no homes within 10 miles of the track, developers began building homes. Now there's a movement to close down the Great Lakes Dragaway due to noise problems. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Memphis Motor sports park closed a few weeks ago. I'am trying to get 3 doctors to buy it. We have a former NHRA div 2 person lined up to run it. The problem is, the round track. It is asphalt. NOBODY arround here runs that type of car. Everybody is some type of dirt car. WoW, limited sprint hobby stock ect. anybody want to buy a round track track.

We would KILL to have even anything remotely related to that on Long Island. All we have is a nice 5000 ft abandoned miltary runway and complex where they built F14's for years. When the town put the property out for bid, (after the Navy gave it to them for $0), the Racetrack group came in #2 in the bidding and the winner was an Indoor Ski slope company from Europe (I am not kidding). We once had 3 seperate, and somewhat famous, Dragstrips and the very famous Bridgehampton Road course, ALL GONE, very sad.

I was down there this past summer and for 25 bucks you could get at least 15 runs in without a problem.Great thing was they sell race fuel at the track also.
