Wow,that really blows,sorry to hear this,Ive only been there once myself,nice place. I can tell you though that when LACR closed a few years ago,our area felt it in a number of different ways,local restaurants,parts stores,{especially the speed shop I work at},felt the economic impact,,hopefully someone within the government there will realize this will probably happen there as well....good luck

Well that sucks...Does not sound good for Speedworld as it appears the state has made up it's mind already.

Albuquerque Dragway just placed 320' of new concrete, guess I should feel lucky even though the DA is always 8000' or more.

The Volvo/Ford proving grounds are very close by.. Maybe they want the land..
Pretty sure that isn't the case. If anything they'd want the property across the street from the facility if they were to expand. Speedworld is kitty corner to it.
Honestly, losing the dragstrip is a shame, but even more unfortunate will be the loss of the FIVE motocross tracks, the stadium truck course, BMX track, etc. That facility was awesome.
