Southern California - no place to drag race in the birthplace of drag racing
I was going to Englishtown, NJ since the mid 80's. It was pretty much in the boondocks, homes were few and far apart. Over the years starting in the 90's they started building like crazy around the track. The Summer Nationals were held there, Mopar swap meets, and spring and fall swap meet. The track has been relegated to the storage of cars. They still have the fall and spring swap meets but the thrill is gone.
