Kevin, I have to respectfully disagree with you. First I strongly believe in the free enterprise system and business, it's part of what makes this country the greatest country on earth. Cumberland County where the track is located normally has a higher unemployment rate than most of the counties in the state of NJ.  It's a blue collar county the auto entuhusiasts here are mostly NHRA,NASCAR or street  rodders not road racing guys. The County, State and Local officials are always looking to bring new business and give them big money in incentives. A lot of the local residents were against it, noise problems and other stuff. So the proposed  owners of the track had to convince local residents of the county to go along with it so the could get approval for the track this is where they started making promises which I believe they had no intent of fullfilling. They said they would build a short asphalt track, bring NASCAR races in and other stuff that they didn't do. Most of the people in the county had their traditional idea of what a race track was there's spectators  pay to get in the racers get paid a purse or get trophies for their efforts . Even the old Vineland Speedway road course used that model.  What did it turn into a play ground for the wealthy. I talked to a couple of my racing friends and they believe I rememberd it correctly. I give credit to the people who wanted to build the track in Wall or the people who want to build a track at Bader Field. They seem to be pretty honest. The owners also screwed the dirt modified guys and the vintage guys by being greedy.
