That's the best racing news I've received in a long time!!!!! This is great! We've got to find a way to hold an event there.

It took six years to get approval for the complex from the Union Township zoning hearing board. Opponents plan to appeal the decision.

Mascaro (the owner) expects to start racetrack construction in spring 2009.

All this according to the article in today's Pottstown Mercury

It states the SCCA is going to oversee track operations?

Eh? Does that mean they are only going to hold SCCA events and require SCCA membership to use the track? I suppose the track needs to be built first regardless heh...
