i emailed the cathells about this...



To whom it may concern

I keep hearing rumors again about the dragstrip closing and not opening for a 2008 season. I was just wondering if there was any truth in this matter or is it just hearsay?

Thanks
Todd James

the responce i got....

No the track has not been sold - We will see you in 2008. Check the web-site in January for the 2008 Season Schedules.
