It's very difficult to force people to change their opinion on most things. It's been tried several times over the Centuries. Wars have been fought over it.
Let's face it. Most of the public around here thinks drag racing is boring and just an annoying noisy nuisance. The drivers, crew members, and most of the spectators are gear heads like us who appreciate what goes into building a high powered machine.
Seekonk Speedway is the only circle track left in Massachusetts. At one time, there was Westboro Speedway, Norwood Arena, Lakeville Speedway among others. They all closed because the land was worth more than what they were taking in at the gate.
It's going to be very difficult to win over the minds and hearts of the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. So while having our own local strip is a wonderful dream, I'm afraid that's all it will ever be.....a dream.
