Island Dragway, Great Meadows NJ.....

Never been there, but it's a shame for the sport and our hobby. E-town is middle of a decades long McMansion sprawl build up around it. Atco is getting sued out the wazzoo for an accident a couple of years ago, when the rescue truck didn't start up. Millville had plans for construction of dragstrip near the 2 circle tracks. They are almost bankrupt, and hanging by a thread. So forget about that.
The young people today are not interested much anymore, car shows are becoming things for us "old" guys. How many 20 year olds go to strip with a big block under the hood? They young guys like them, but the passion is wanning.
Used to hate going to E-town, only been to Atco a few times. Went out to the Old Dutchmans Classic at Maple Grove once with the guy who owns the car I posted. The local track here in Spokane is owned by the county. Lot of folks piss and moan about it. Hope it is still around when I get to my car years from now. It has seen a few management changes already. The guy that is running it now is a local guy. From what I understand he has put a tone of money into it out of his own pocket. Suppose time will tell....
