I know in TN thats how they drag race because they don't have a 1/4 mile track near them well with in 100miles.

I don't understand why? Isn't Atco long and straight enough? I thought they held street car events there. I also don't see how as the main straight on the tri-oval is really a curve and probably banked too. (Note: I don't really 'get' drag racing, it does nothing for me. So I don't know what makes one track different than the others other than length, crowds and cost).
From what I have heard the track is going to be expensive to rent (not outrageous but not cheap), which is the way to hold your own event there. The only events that the track will organize themselves will be the "members-only" track days. The rest of the events the track will be renting out the facilities to a particular club/organization/company etc. who will be running the event.
Has anyone heard about when the opening season schedule will be out? I have heard rumors about professional racing weekends like ALMS, Speed World Challenge and Grand-American Racing. I would love to get some concrete dates so I can plan my vacation accordingly.
