The proposed motorsports park in atwater has passed preliminary approval but word has it that lawsuits from several fronts will keep it from ever opening. 'Environmental' concerns from liberals are at the root of most evil when it comes to racing automobiles. I wonder why some of the major sanctioning bodies dont take steps on their own to cut down on pollution so as not to give ammo to the left. Ive been a Nascar fan all my life but never understood why they let gallons of raw fuel to spill on the ground. Now the post race celebration burn outs. Wait until the 'enviros' get wind and make a stink about that.
Check out the pics on the net,They are running an event at Kingdon Dragway in Lodi (was closed back in the 70's) check out the pics from last year! A large crowd was on hand too!
