Would You Like to See Drag Racing at EPCAL?

One proposal being discussed would mean a private racing country club.

With an idea for a possible racing country club for Enterprise Park at Calverton suggested by Riverhead Town Supervisor Sean Walter this week, what do you think? Would you be interested in a private facility, similar to a golf club, at EPCAL?

Walter said plans for the future at EPCAL include a racing country club, where members would pay to join and race on a quarter mile track. "It would be no different than a golf club," Walter said. "That's what we're studying."

But, the supervisor added, although  and  are two uses that have residents divided passionately on both sides, with some fervently advocating for a new drag strip and environmentalists decrying the possibility, the bottom line is that before any future use can be discussed, the subdivision process and environmental review by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation must be completed first.
