Wall Stadium speedway to close next year

... Even more common than the closure rumors are complaints from neighbors about the constant noise emanating from the racetrack. On clear nights, car engines from Wall Stadium can be heard from miles away.

Good news. I feel like a "track closer" -- almost all my favorite short tracks I've attended have closed over the years. When I worked in Philly, in the early eighties, I had New Egypt on Wednesday, East Windsor on Friday, Flemington, Grandview or Bridgeport on Saturday, And Nazareth on Sunday, all summer long. In the seventies, Old and New Jacksonville Speedways, Golden Gate and Sunshine eventually closed. In California, Cajon Speedway, Suagus, San Jose,Speedway 117, Ascot, and a few more that I'm probably forgetting.

Don't let me move to your area! (❁´◡`❁)
