Where were all of these people when the track plans to bring auto racing back to the fairgrounds ? I'm sure there would have been public meetings regarding the renewal of the track after years of no activity. Hell, I remember when I lived down the street from New Egypt Speedway and they wanted to add a kart track on the property. I was interested to get a kart for my son and attended meetings in the municipal building. Never came to furition thanks to all the whiners near the speedway. So, I guess this was all a suprise to the folks that live near the track and didn't have a clue?  Well how was the track rebuilt ? I'm sure it was not a secret that racing was coming back to the fairgrounds and how was the upgrade funded ?

I was fortunate to make it to Bloomsburg to see the USAC sprint cars when it reopended and the people who live across the road where on the roofs of homes to see the races for free.
