They were fighting back and forth and than two agreed upon
A hefty payment plus kickback On the property's future revenue. Pretty much made it a no brainer for the guy to give it up. He originally only had the track open On weekend days than as they kept it open longer more and more people
Complained. He said he would be surprised for any town to let a track
Be built from here on out. It's a tough one to sell to a board.

So F***ed. Its not like we have a track in like montauk and we just want one closer ,we have none!!!!!!!!! Such a shame how many tracks and road courses closed down. All because people moved to locations that had track near by for years and then complained

I was one of them.

Thing is, one strip is not abandoned. The 10,000 ft strip is actually being leased by Skydive Long Island, who also opposed the idea of sharing the property with cars. Basically, that entire area has a d*ck up their *** about cars trying to be in a safe and controlled environment.
