From what I read the lawzuit was breach of contract because the track already had a national event scheduled and then closed the track.

Yep. NHRA wanted that National in the NY/NJ market. They don't care about and aren't involved in anything else as far as the track is concerned. The Franklin family has done such a good job at VMP, and with New England and the Grove, I'm not sure NHRA would even care about a big race at Englishtown now.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

The deal was never with copart. It was with IAA.

That stinks. I'm at least glad that I got a chance to race there.

Englishtown is done. There will never be drag racing there again. Coparts is moving in. It’s been 8 months, and the track is still empty. Weeds taking over the pits. The deal also wasn’t with coparts, it was with IAA.

KAR owneed Iaa and CoPart and few other , Iaa was spun off in Feb?Mar. The deal was NEVER ABOUT salvage auction or storage it was all about getting away from NHRA.
Truth has no agenda, but those with an agenda make their own truth. Some of us are so open minded they only see their View

It's funny how many different stories there are as to what happened, and all of you are adamant that your version is the correct one.

Whatever happens at E Town, it won't be drag racing. I haven't heard anything definite about Long Island but I will keep my hopes up. I bought raffle tickets to support the cause. Only one?? Or one book? I bought a book and hope to have the winning tickey!!

Its done , the end has come as they started parking junk cars there this past week. very sad!!! It appears making money and not having to work for it are more important to the offspring than the feelings of a bunch of drag racers and Vinny and Richards legacy.
