Courtesy Bridgeport Speedway Get your thrills vicariously at Atco Raceway. When the red light changes to green, the adrenalin kicks in as stock cars, dragsters and motorcycles tear by at 130 mph. Atco Raceway's quarter-mile drag strip attracts some of the nation's top dragsters in all classes and with the addition of the only lighted extreme motocross park on the East Coast, high-speed motor sports are definitely on the rise. You don't have to be just a spectator. If you dare, tag along while a professional race driver burns a few G forces for your fantasy high speed ride. Or you can indulge your inner speed demon and enroll in the legendary Doug Foley's drag racing school. They say they have the fastest dirt track in the East. But check out the Bridgeport Speedway for yourself. The Speedway has all new amenities and affordable family packages so the whole crew can enjoy high-energy stock car, micro-sprints, outlaw stocks, big block modifieds and other high-action motorsports at prices that won't break the bank. And a recent agreement with DIRT Motorsports means that the Friday Night Modified events will bring a full season of dirt modified racing to the track. Even if you don't follow the racers' total points, you can't help but get caught up in the excitement. And if you happen to own one of those high-power vehicles or dirt bikes, you can register to get out there and show your stuff for certain events or sign up for Bridgeport's speed racing driving school. |
