I highly doubt they will move. They have to much invested. I believe the issue is getting out of the place afterwards. I think they will eventually resolve the issue. The airport let us exit through there once or twice and it worked out well. The FAA may have shut that down. Lorain would be closer for us.

I'm not thinking there is a huge market for a facility like Norwalk...especially if the client base is moved so close by.


5.53 @ 125 1/8th on the launch control..more left in her!

I dont see it happening myself. The baders have alot invested at the current property. But Bader junior implies hes ready to do it in a heartbeat with the right property, witch he has two in mind.

It may be a bluff or he may be serious, its a card game IMO. But I could be very wrong.

I like Norwalk where its at. Also , drag racing overall has been falling off. Norwalk is seeing growth since they went NHRA, but that in time IMO will be aligned with whats happening overall with NHRA, the interest in drag racing is going down.

Unless there is a resurrection of interest with all of the stupid drag race reality shows going on for the general public.
