In the last couple ofdays the final i's were dotted and the final t's were crossed, and Quaker City Raceway officially and LEGALLY changed hands. Most of the locals know it's now called Quaker City Motorsports Park. The Fox family hopes to add a go kart track right away, and expand into other forms of racing in the future. Today word came down that they are once again an IHRA sanctioned track. Last year the geniuses running Quaker went with the "re-formed" AHRA. That did not go well. Good to see a legitimate sanctioning body attached to Quaker again!

I'll throw my hat in the ring when the time comes. I've let them know I'm interested. If not, maybe I'll come out and play in the street class!

Great news - I just hope the old swindler does not become a big pain in the rear next door neighbor.

I need to make a race there this year. Have always been told it was decent track when it was run correctly. Sounds like the new owner has his stuff together from talking to a mutual friend. Hope it is a success for him. Beep
