Well there is word that there is a new dragstrip with oval tracks opening up. Here is the letter. Apparently it is in Douglasville PA right off 422.


Louis J. Mascaro
President
Liberty Bell Motorsports Park

Dear Motorsports Enthusiasts:

I am pleased to report that on August 23, 2007, the Union Township Zoning Board voted to approve the proposed Liberty Bell Motorsports Park and Campground. This decision allows the project to go forward legally with certain conditions outlined by the Township and agreed to by all parties. This approval will allow us to proceed to the land development permitting process. This is, simply stated, a technical review of the plan as it relates to impacts such as earth disturbance, site grading, sewer, water, landscaping, erosion and sedimentation control, etc. We do not anticipate any problems during this review process. Much of the enginneering has been completed and we hope to begin construction in the spring of 2009. Construction of the park will take about 6 to 8 months. I would ask that you be vigilant in checking the website for construction updates as the time approaches.

Lastly, I would like to take the time to thank each and every one of you that gave your support during the last 7 years. I know the end result will be a “World Class” Motorsports Facility second to none.

No clue it looks like it is about 17 miles from the grove. Maybe they will be nicer to the imports?????

 

Don't mind dave, he just likes to lay in the sand trap at the grove and get a tan

 

nevermind that place. its a road race track(s) !

wrong forum chaddy !

where did you find this at ? tst ? lmao

 

I was about to say, Maple Grove doesn't have road racing, do they?

 

HAHA yeah found it over on tst. It said a dragstrip so I figured I would post it.

There is prob some sand by the river for you to play in pebbles

wherre on the track layout is there a drag strip ? that is a horrible picture. i saved it and zoomed on it, but i still cant make it out that well.

i went on google.com/maps/satellite, but i cant seem to be able to locate where the track would be

 

Here is what I found

Nope, Maple Grove is so domestic it's not even funny, and we all know domestics can't turn.

Hrmmmm


Not sure, but this looks to be a markedly familiar layout to what we're used to

 

oooo good eye Clayton !

just that i didnt see any turn off or anything so i figured it may be a "pit road" kinda like they have in nascar ?

 

I think they said it is going to be an 1/8th mile now on tst

 

there could be a 1/4 mile track, just like infeneon raceway...

yes there could be, but that would require a 1/2 mile or more x 300 or 400' of open space in order to do so, I do not know the scale of that plan or the general size of the lot by looking at the plan but I do not see where it would fit, possibly crammed into the RV parking area or the east side of the site.

That would be nice. The last Import event I recall seeing at the Grove was when Ben Ma rolled his Focus rubber side up.

 

When I first read it I was hoping for a smaller type of venue (think cecil county, but new!).
Either way, that would put yet another drag strip under an hour from home.

 

Not far from me.

 

any other info on this ?

 

They need to model there track after that new one in NC. its a great exsample
