Milan Dragway closed

[phat46]

I saw on a local FB car site that Milan will not open this year due to "unfortunate circumstances". A little checking found that the owners were behind on taxes and pawned the track to Les Gold from American Jewelry, remember that awful t.v. Show they had? Hopefully new owners can be found before it gets sold for "development "

That's quite a story.
