Default Re: Island Dragway,Great Meadows N.J.

Ken,
You are right on the money with what you said. Island Dragway and Old Bridge Twsp. Raceway Park are on two opposite ends of the spectrum. A good friend of mine went up there for a nostalgia funny car meet and they had a good time. It is nice to have a mix of things so close together. New Jersey has had and still has a great auto racing heritage, we have Raceway Park, Island Dragway, Atco Dragway, Wall Stadium (stock car), New Egypt Speedway (stock car), and East Windsor Speedway (stock car, dirt). We have lost some tracks over the years Old Bridge Speedway, Flemington Speedway, and Trenton Speedway, but things are still good.

Andrew
