34 miles to my local track ( about a 45 minute drive ) , Island Dragway. I have been racing there for over 35 years . I will be going to Cecil County ( 154 miles , about 2 1/2 hours away one way ) for their two remaining Strange Street Car Shootouts to run 11.50 Index . Maple Grove is about two hours , 125 miles . Atco ( R.I.P. ) was about a two hour drive and Englishtown ( R.I.P. ) was about an hour away ... I work part time as a truck driver / operator and lately my travels have taken me down Rte 18 past Englishtown Rd. every time I pass it I get a sad feeling ... had a lot of fun at the their Mopar Atlantic Nats every year as well as running 11.50 Index there right up until they closed .
