Jersey is a long, long ways from me, but it still sucks that ANOTHER dragstrip is done for..........

We still have Tucson and Chandler, AZ.

I'm told July 30th will be the last race at the Chandler facility, but they keep stretching it out.

The fact is, Chandler is on the chopping block, it's just a matter of time. It's on a reservation and the Natives want to build another casino.

They turned E-Town into a storage lot for cars. Not sure what they'll do with Atco. It's all about the greenbacks. Shame.

Atco won't become another Co-part facility like what happened with Raceway Park. The municipality for Atco denied that application in 2020.

area around atco is warehousing....rumblings are an internet purchase fulfillment warehouse is the future for Atco.

Atco's grandstands and tower are already listed for sale.
